1. Remove accessible standing water

   The crew extracts pooled water from the Auburn room before it reaches more flooring.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Floor finishes may cover wet underlayment, so the crew checks below the surface.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Technicians compare affected areas with nearby dry materials to judge progress.
