-
Extract liquid water
When water reaches the kitchen threshold, technicians remove accessible liquid in both rooms. Early extraction leaves less moisture for the subfloor to absorb.

Trace the wet layers
Water can slip behind the baseboard beside a refrigerator. The crew follows readings along the wall and cabinet edge instead of stopping at the visible stain.

Remove what cannot dry
Porous trim beside a persistent leak can remain saturated after surface extraction. The technician checks whether it can dry or needs removal.

Verify the dry-out
The lower ceiling cavity needs its own final readings after a kitchen leak. The crew records those results before any rebuild work is quoted.
