   A vacant property can hold water in several places, so crews work through the full wet footprint.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   The technician measures dampness beyond the puddle to find affected building layers.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   The crew assesses whether floor covering can dry in place or must be lifted.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Final checks help show when structural drying is complete.
