1. Remove accessible water

   If used wash water escaped, the technician considers contamination during removal. At the Otter Lake property, cleanup follows the affected materials.

2. Map the wet materials

   Cabinet bases, wallboard and the appliance opening receive separate checks. This map helps the Otter Lake crew place drying equipment.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Otter Lake crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured progress determines when dehumidification ends. The final Otter Lake report documents the dry-out and any removed material.
