1. Remove the standing water

   Extraction limits how much additional water enters porous finishes.

2. Map the moisture

   Meters show whether subfloors remain wet beyond the visible edge.

3. Open what holds water

   Cabinet toe kicks may need access so trapped moisture can escape.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment placement changes when measurements reveal a stubborn area.

• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
