-
Extract accessible water
Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.
-
Map the wet footprint
Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.
-
Open water holding materials
Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.

Dry and verify
The closeout record can include the wet map, removed materials, and final readings. The insurer applies the policy to any claim.
