2. Measure hidden dampness

   The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results

   Equipment placement changes if a damp area resists progress. The technician checks readings instead of appearance alone.
