   Pumps clear deeper water before extraction tools address the remaining wet floor.

2. Map the moisture

   Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.

3. Open what holds water

   Cabinet toe kicks may need access so trapped moisture can escape.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

Drying progress is measured, not guessed from touch. Daily readings help show whether hidden moisture is falling.

• Stop nearby water use and avoid contact until the source is known.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
