Extract the standing water

-
Map the moisture
A moisture meter and a thermal camera show where water spread beyond the puddle. The technician marks wet walls and floors and records the readings.
-
Open what holds water
The crew bags and removes wet debris so it does not feed humidity back into the room.

Dry and verify
