1. Remove accessible water

   Dry-looking surfaces can hide damp materials below. The crew records those concealed points before drying begins in Logan.

• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
• Move loose belongings away from the drip without standing below a sagging area.
• Photograph the kitchen floor and lower ceiling from safe positions.
