Extract accessible water

Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.
