A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.
-
Remove soaked material
The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

A technician records progress before equipment is removed. Rebuild planning follows the final dry-out check.
