1. Assess the water and safe access

   A brief walkthrough records affected rooms and floor types. The specialist looks for contaminated porous materials.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   Pumps collect deeper water while floor tools recover shallow liquid. The crew keeps dirty water away from clean areas.

3. Map wet construction

   An upstairs bathroom may wet joists and ceiling board. Readings direct access to those concealed areas.

   Air movers and dehumidifiers target salvageable wet structure. Follow-up readings show drying progress.
