   A pump clears deeper accumulation before smaller extraction tools reach the film left behind.

2. Trace damp materials

   Wall cavities beside a split pipe are checked for absorbed water.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   A ceiling section may need controlled removal after overhead water damage.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The crew records the progression and adjusts equipment when a layer dries slowly.
