2. Map Concealed Moisture

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   The crew limits removal to the affected assembly when conditions permit. Pipe work stays with the utility or plumber.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

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