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

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Porous materials that cannot be restored are removed using protective methods.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Dehumidifiers and air movers address the remaining wet structure after sanitizing.
