2. Map moisture beneath finishes

   A meter check traces the spill under flooring seams. The Lewiston technician compares wet readings with unaffected material.

3. Open materials that trap water

   A swollen cabinet base may block airflow. The crew evaluates removal when the board cannot dry in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure
