1. Stop the source safely

   A refrigerator should not be dragged across swollen floorboards. The appliance professional gains access to the source safely. Floor protection may be needed before the appliance moves.

2. Extract reachable water

   A cabinet base may hold water behind its front panel. The crew checks for access before drying it. A wet base can hide liquid behind a removable front panel.

3. Map concealed moisture

   Floor joints can hide damp material after the puddle disappears. The Southport technician tests nearby layers. A reading at the wall base helps define the boundary of the loss.

4. Dry and verify

   The drying setup changes if a cavity remains wet. The crew documents measurements before equipment leaves. Equipment stays in place while material readings still call for drying.
