-
Extract escaped condensate
Pooled water at the closet threshold is taken up with extraction tools. The technician checks nearby flooring for water that traveled out of sight. In a closet loss, the crew checks whether water crossed the doorway into the hall.
-
Map the hidden wet area
The technician checks insulation above a ceiling mark and drywall around it. Measurements show which materials need drying. Different readings across the board can show whether the overflow spread sideways in the attic.
-
Address soaked materials
Wet carpet pad may hold water against the subfloor. The restoration technician evaluates whether it can be dried safely. Pad soaked by condensate can remain wet even after carpet extraction, requiring a material decision.
-
Dry and check progress
After extraction and material removal, the crew tracks framing and subfloor moisture. Rebuild is considered when drying is complete. Framing and subfloor measurements help decide when the structure can move to rebuild.
