1. Remove Standing Water

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   Meters show whether water moved under finished flooring. The technician marks a wet boundary for equipment placement.

   A floor covering can trap water beneath it. Lifting or removal may be needed to reach the wet layer.

   The drying plan changes with water category, saturation and material type. Technicians log progress rather than relying on a fixed day count.
