1. Remove the overflow

   Standing drain water is removed with suitable extraction equipment. The crew protects unaffected contents while defining the wet boundary.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   A water damage worker records initial readings before air movers begin. Later measurements show whether the damp footprint is shrinking.

3. Handle affected materials

   Where Category 3 water contacted absorbent finishes, the crew removes those materials before drying. Sanitation addresses surfaces that remain.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the remaining materials after sanitation. The technician compares readings with the dry reference before equipment leaves.
