   Technicians compare suspect materials with dry areas to define the drying scope.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Cleaning work follows the documented contamination path, not just the most visible stain.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The drying specialist tracks material readings until the job goals are met.
