Extract accessible water
Surface mopping cannot reach moisture under hardwood. The technician removes accessible water and maps the deeper wet assembly.

Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.
-
Open water holding materials
The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.
-
Dry and verify
Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.
