3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

4. Track drying results

   The crew monitors the wet area during drying. Final measurements support the handoff to finishing trades.

• Turn off the water at a safe, accessible valve if the leak is active.
• Move rugs and light furnishings away from wet boards.
• Keep electrical cords and powered devices away from damp flooring.
• Photograph cupped boards and water marks before cleanup begins.
