Trace the wet layers
A slow dispenser drip can spread in a narrow channel along the wall. Mapping that path shows where extraction and air movement are needed.

Remove what cannot dry

-
Verify the dry-out
Final checks include wall edges and floor seams that held water early in the loss. The technician records the dry-out before equipment is removed.
