   A walkthrough tracks where outside water reached flooring, walls and lower cavities.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Dehumidifiers and directed airflow dry remaining materials while meter readings show progress.
