   The assessor follows water through grout joints and pipe openings. Lower cavities are checked when an upstairs fixture overflows.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Porous layers soaked with Category 3 water may require disposal. The crew controls the affected area during cleanup.

4. Dry and verify progress

   Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation after extraction. The specialist checks readings to see whether moisture is falling.
