1. Extract liquid water

   When water reaches the kitchen threshold, technicians remove accessible liquid in both rooms. Early extraction leaves less moisture for the subfloor to absorb.

2. Trace the wet layers

   A damp ceiling below the kitchen can indicate water between joists. Technicians check both sides of the assembly to locate the materials holding moisture.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Porous trim beside a persistent leak can remain saturated after surface extraction. The technician checks whether it can dry or needs removal.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The cabinet base and nearby boards may dry at different rates. The crew measures each material again before clearing the work area.
