3. Address soaked layers

   Adhesive, underlayment and floor covering can respond differently to water. The plan follows the assembly.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.

• Keep people away from wet outlets and electrical devices.
• Move portable belongings out of the damp area.
