1. Remove accessible standing water

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

2. Trace moisture through materials

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

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Equipment remains focused on materials that still show elevated moisture.
