1. Remove accessible standing water

   The extraction plan follows the visible flow path across each affected room.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Moisture mapping records how far the thaw leak moved from the split.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Wet ceiling material may require removal when it is sagging or holding water.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while the crew tracks material readings.
