-
Map the hidden wet area
A wall-mounted unit can leak behind the finish. Readings at several heights help trace how far water moved. Measurements down the wall help distinguish one drip track from a wider damp cavity.

Address soaked materials
Water that passed through dirty cavities can require sanitizing. The technician evaluates the affected surfaces during cleanup. When water crossed dirty surfaces, the cleanup plan accounts for those conditions.

Dry and check progress
After extraction and material removal, the crew tracks framing and subfloor moisture. Rebuild is considered when drying is complete. Framing and subfloor measurements help decide when the structure can move to rebuild.
