1. Remove accessible water

3. Open trapped-water areas

   If flooring traps moisture against underlayment, the technician may lift affected sections. The drying plan at the Darby property follows the actual assembly.

4. Dry and verify

   Cabinets, subflooring and wallboard can dry at different rates. The local team monitors each affected layer at the Darby address.
