Trace damp materials
The team documents wet materials in adjoining rooms, not just the first room.
-
Expose trapped moisture
Floor layers are assessed for trapped water that surface airflow cannot reach.
-
Verify the dry-out
Drying is completed against measured goals for the materials and local conditions.
