A restoration team starts with visible water so structural drying can address what remains inside materials.
-
Map wet materials
Moisture meters reveal damp drywall and flooring beyond the obvious sprinkler spray area.

Open trapped areas
When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.
-
Dry and verify
A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.
