   If flooring traps moisture against underlayment, the technician may lift affected sections. The drying plan at the Oketo property follows the actual assembly.

4. Dry and verify

   Cabinets, subflooring and wallboard can dry at different rates. The local team monitors each affected layer at the Oketo address.
