-
Remove standing water
The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.
-
Map moisture
Subfloor seams and cabinet bases receive close moisture checks. Kitchen and bath finishes can conceal wet backing.
-
Remove soaked material
Material removal follows the water path and contamination level. The crew checks whether neighboring material is wet.

Dry and verify
