1. Remove Standing Water

   Heavy water in a crawl space may require pumping. The crew then checks the subfloor above for moisture.

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   A technician assesses framing, floor layers and wall bases. The findings define what stays and what needs removal.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   The crew limits removal to the affected assembly when conditions permit. Pipe work stays with the utility or plumber.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Dehumidifiers collect moisture released into the air while airflow supports evaporation. Final measurements show when the structure is ready for rebuilding.
