1. Remove Standing Water

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   The crew limits removal to the affected assembly when conditions permit. Pipe work stays with the utility or plumber.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Structural drying targets framing and subfloors as well as visible surfaces. The team records final readings for the claim file.
