1. Remove accessible water

   Visible liquid is lifted from reachable surfaces. The drying specialist then handles moisture absorbed into building materials.

2. Measure concealed moisture

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Trapped water under a floor may require selective access. The contractor explains why a covering or trim piece must come out.

   Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation after extraction. The specialist checks readings to see whether moisture is falling.
