-
Extract accessible water
Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

Open water holding materials

Dry and verify
Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.
