1. Assess the water and safe access

   An upstairs spill gets assessed at the source and the lower room. The technician notes what the water touched.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   Pumps collect deeper water while floor tools recover shallow liquid. The crew keeps dirty water away from clean areas.

3. Map wet construction

   An upstairs bathroom may wet joists and ceiling board. Readings direct access to those concealed areas.

4. Dry and record the result

   The dry out is complete when material conditions support it. Rebuilding finishes is assessed afterward.
