Moisture can follow pipe penetrations between rooms. The restoration team maps both sides of those openings.
-
Open only materials that hold water
The Pine Beach crew documents each material removed during the dry-out. Finish work is scoped after moisture goals are reached.
-
Run equipment and verify drying
A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Pine Beach crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
