1. Extract liquid water

   A lower ceiling stain can appear after water has crossed the kitchen floor. The crew removes surface water upstairs before working through the damp layers below.

2. Trace the wet layers

   Finished hardwood may be dry on top while the underside stays wet. Separate readings from the boards and substrate shape the drying approach.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   A swollen toe kick can conceal a damp cabinet base. Selective removal may expose the affected area without disturbing dry sections of the kitchen.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Daily readings show whether the subfloor is losing moisture. Equipment stays directed at the affected layers until the drying record supports completion.
