Measure hidden dampness
Moisture meters show where water moved beneath flooring. The technician marks affected areas for the drying plan.
-
Address soaked layers
Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

Track drying results
Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.
