A basement may look clean while moisture sits inside wall bases. The crew measures those layers and starts drying after Category 3 cleaning.

   The technician checks whether wastewater moved beyond the visible puddle, then expands extraction as needed.

2. Map contamination and moisture

   A room diagram can mark contaminated surfaces and the moisture boundary for the job record.

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

   Equipment placement changes when moisture progress slows or hidden layers need access.
