-
Pump and extract the water
A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.
-
Map moisture beyond the puddle
Hidden wetness can sit behind cabinets or trim. The assessor checks those edges before equipment placement. Water may travel behind a finish and emerge far from the entry point.
-
Remove materials that hold dirty water
