2. Map contamination and moisture

   The assessor records affected wall bases, flooring seams and nearby room edges.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Cleaning work follows the documented contamination path, not just the most visible stain.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Dehumidifiers and air movers address the remaining wet structure after sanitizing.
