Remove pooled liquid
Extraction begins at accessible pools and continues along the flow path. Wet coverings are assessed for salvage.

Map wet construction
Baseboards and doorway transitions can wick beyond the puddle. A moisture map records the boundaries.

Dry and record the result
Air movers and dehumidifiers target salvageable wet structure. Follow-up readings show drying progress.
