1. Extract liquid water

   A burst supply connection may flood the space under a refrigerator. The crew clears pooled water from the kitchen and identifies other rooms touched by the flow.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Soaked cabinet backing may block airflow to the wall cavity. The crew removes unsalvageable material when needed so the remaining structure can dry.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Air movement is adjusted as wet sections change during the job. Documented moisture trends show which area still needs attention.
