1. Remove accessible water

   A pump or extraction tool removes the liquid that a towel cannot reach. The Albany crew starts with the wettest accessible areas.

2. Map the wet materials

   The source and duration help interpret moisture patterns. A local technician documents the Albany property's wet layers.

4. Dry and verify

   A drying record lists the equipment, materials and readings. That evidence helps the Albany property owner plan finish work.

• Leave wet plugs, outlets and appliance wiring alone; an electrician handles hazards.
• Remove dry contents from neighboring cupboards without pulling fixed panels apart.
