   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
