   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.
