   Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.

2. Trace damp materials

   The team documents wet materials in adjoining rooms, not just the first room.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   A damaged carpet pad can be lifted so the underlying floor can dry.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Final moisture notes document the condition before rebuild work is considered.
