   A lower room may collect water after an upstairs overflow. The extraction plan covers both levels when measurements show wetting.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   Dry reference measurements help interpret affected material readings. The crew documents the comparison during the job.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Trapped water under a floor may require selective access. The contractor explains why a covering or trim piece must come out.

4. Dry and verify progress

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