1. Water Removal: Pump Out Collected Water

   A pumping specialist checks low areas around stored contents. Puddles beneath shelving can remain after the center of a room clears.

2. Water Removal: Trace the Remaining Moisture

   A moisture specialist selects unaffected material for comparison where appropriate. The resulting target reflects the material rather than a universal moisture number.

3. Water Removal: Reach Water Beneath Finishes

   An insulation check helps the technician decide whether a wet cavity can dry intact. Saturation, contamination and physical damage affect the decision.

4. Water Removal: Dry Materials & Record Results

   The contractor documents equipment changes as the drying load falls. Remaining treatment concentrates on the locations whose measurements still indicate excess moisture.

• Occupants should leave underfloor pumps, wiring and wet heating equipment untouched.
