3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Waterlogged drywall at the bottom of a wall may need selective opening. The team documents the removal before work proceeds.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   The technician adjusts equipment when a wall or floor dries more slowly than nearby materials. Completion follows measured conditions.
