1. Pump or extract liquid water

   A crew lowers standing water with pumps, then uses extraction tools on reachable floors. The method depends on depth and whether the source has stopped.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   Meters reveal damp subfloor and wall bases that eyes cannot judge. The wet map tells the team where drying equipment belongs.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   The crew documents what comes out and why. Removed material notes help explain the loss when later finish work is quoted.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

• Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
• Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
• Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
