Open only materials that hold water
The Thebes crew documents each material removed during the dry-out. Finish work is scoped after moisture goals are reached.

Run equipment and verify drying
A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Thebes crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
