When water reaches carpet, the technician checks the padding beneath it. Extraction targets wet layers, not only the visible surface.
-
Trace moisture through nearby materials

-
Open only materials that hold water
Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.
-
Run equipment and verify drying
The Verndale technician keeps a drying record for the homeowner. Rebuild work follows after affected materials reach their goals.
