   A room diagram can mark contaminated surfaces and the moisture boundary for the job record.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Porous materials that cannot be restored are removed using protective methods.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The drying specialist tracks material readings until the job goals are met.
