1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The crew works from safe access toward wet rooms, taking bulk water out before drying.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The contractor explains each proposed removal with photographs and material findings.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.
