2. Remove pooled liquid

   Technicians lift standing water before placing drying equipment. Category 3 materials receive careful handling.

3. Map wet construction

   A stained ceiling may not show the full wet cavity. The specialist tests around the visible mark.

4. Dry and record the result

   The dry out is complete when material conditions support it. Rebuilding finishes is assessed afterward.
