   A low drain can spread water across several surfaces. Workers extract the liquid from each reachable section.

2. Map contamination and moisture

   Moisture readings show whether a seemingly dry surface still hides wet backing.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Equipment placement changes when moisture progress slows or hidden layers need access.
