Pump out the laundry water
Carpet gets a weighted extractor that squeezes water out of the pad. Any bulk water left behind goes into the air as vapor and slows drying.

Map where the water went
Readings go beyond the visible stain, into the toe-kicks, the wall bases and the room next door. The map becomes the plan for equipment.

Open what stays wet
Only materials that cannot dry in place come out. The crew explains each opening and records it for the claim.
-
Dry and confirm
A technician returns each day to log temperature, humidity and material readings. Equipment stays until every wet material hits the dry target.
