1. Remove Standing Water

   A main break can leave pockets of water behind trim or thresholds. Extraction follows the actual spread rather than one visible puddle.

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   Meters show whether water moved under finished flooring. The technician marks a wet boundary for equipment placement.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Waterlogged drywall at the bottom of a wall may need selective opening. The team documents the removal before work proceeds.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   The technician adjusts equipment when a wall or floor dries more slowly than nearby materials. Completion follows measured conditions.
