Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Rapid water removal and controlled drying lower the time those materials stay damp.

1. Remove accessible standing water

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

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A drying plan changes when readings reveal a pocket of trapped water.
