1. Extract liquid water

   A lower ceiling stain can appear after water has crossed the kitchen floor. The crew removes surface water upstairs before working through the damp layers below.

2. Trace the wet layers

   A moisture meter can reveal wet plywood beneath a floor that looks clean. The technician marks the boundary of the affected subfloor and checks it again during drying.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Porous trim beside a persistent leak can remain saturated after surface extraction. The technician checks whether it can dry or needs removal.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Final checks include wall edges and floor seams that held water early in the loss. The technician records the dry-out before equipment is removed.
