Extract the escaped water
A technician first removes visible liquid from the Alger floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

Map the wet boundary
The technician marks affected layers so progress checks return to the same points. That record helps track drying.

Remove material that holds water
A damp carpet pad may need to come out before the subfloor can dry. The technician evaluates contamination and saturation.
-
Dry and verify materials
The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.
