1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Map the wet materials

   Cabinet bases, wallboard and the appliance opening receive separate checks. This map helps the Cottage Hills crew place drying equipment.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Contaminated porous material may need removal after a used-water release. The Cottage Hills team cleans and sanitizes affected surfaces as appropriate.

4. Dry and verify

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