2. Remove pooled liquid

   Pumps collect deeper water while floor tools recover shallow liquid. The crew keeps dirty water away from clean areas.

3. Map wet construction

   Flooring material changes how water moves. Instrument readings identify layers needing equipment.

4. Dry and record the result

   Cleanup records include photos, readings and work performed. The insurer decides claim coverage.
