   Surface appearance does not reveal a wet subfloor. Meter checks identify materials that need further access or drying.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Damaged cabinet bases or wall sections are assessed for retention. Drying access depends on the assembly and contamination.

   Equipment stays positioned for the material load. The final check documents when structural drying goals are met.
