Trace moisture through nearby materials
Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.

Open only materials that hold water
Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.

The crew checks room air and material readings through the dry-out. Equipment stays until verified conditions support removal.
