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

Trace damp materials
The team documents wet materials in adjoining rooms, not just the first room.
-
Expose trapped moisture
The technician opens wet materials only where needed to reach retained water.
-
Verify the dry-out
