Extract liquid water

Trace the wet layers
Finished hardwood may be dry on top while the underside stays wet. Separate readings from the boards and substrate shape the drying approach.

Remove what cannot dry
Wet insulation beneath the kitchen can hold water against framing. Technicians assess whether it must come out before the cavity receives drying air.

Verify the dry-out
Final checks include wall edges and floor seams that held water early in the loss. The technician records the dry-out before equipment is removed.
