1. Extract the escaped water

   Water trapped against trim can keep moving through a room. The crew removes bulk moisture before setting drying equipment.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Hertel building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Opening a wall base can expose wet framing after an air handler overflow. Access decisions follow the moisture map.

4. Dry and verify materials

   Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation from wet Hertel materials. Repeat readings show whether moisture is dropping.
