1. Extract the escaped water

   The cleanup operator checks the route for hoses and equipment. Call 24/7 when liquid keeps spreading. Hose access, stairs and floor depth shape which extraction tool fits the room. Portable equipment may suit a tight stairway better than a larger machine.

2. Map the wet materials

   Boiler water can soak wall bases in Kobuk. Unaffected material provides a comparison point. Cabinet bases and wall corners may retain moisture after the main floor looks dry. The crew checks adjoining cabinet edges that may wick from the floor.

3. Open what holds water

   Carpet cushion may not be suitable to keep. The plan protects nearby dry areas. The technician records the cushion and flooring layers that were retained or discarded. The crew separates wet debris from belongings that can remain.

4. Dry and verify

   Dehumidifiers collect moisture from the room air. Rebuilding waits for verified dryness. Daily readings show whether dehumidification is reducing the moisture load. The final check includes hidden layers that were wet at the start.
