1. Remove Standing Water

   The crew pumps deep basement water before treating wet floors. Early liquid removal reduces the amount left for drying equipment.

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   A technician assesses framing, floor layers and wall bases. The findings define what stays and what needs removal.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Soft or swollen trim can show prolonged saturation. The restoration team evaluates it as part of the drying plan.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   A room can feel dry before hidden layers reach target moisture levels. The crew checks both the surface and the assembly below.
