2. Map contamination and moisture

   The assessor records affected wall bases, flooring seams and nearby room edges.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The crew cleans hard surfaces after extraction and sanitizes the remaining affected area.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The crew records temperature, humidity and material condition through the dry-out.

Older vinyl and newer overlay flooring may hide damp backing. Porous surfaces need assessment when Category 3 water touches them.
