1. Remove accessible water

   Visible liquid is lifted from reachable surfaces. The drying specialist then handles moisture absorbed into building materials.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   Surface appearance does not reveal a wet subfloor. Meter checks identify materials that need further access or drying.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Damaged cabinet bases or wall sections are assessed for retention. Drying access depends on the assembly and contamination.

4. Dry and verify progress

   Humidity control removes water vapor as damp materials release it. The crew verifies the affected layers at the end.
