1. Remove accessible water

   Visible water is recovered first, then the technician checks for concealed spread. The Dakota City dry-out is based on material readings.

2. Map the wet materials

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

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Opening only the necessary wet areas gives equipment a path to the structure. The Dakota City technician documents each material taken out.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew checks comparison materials before declaring the wet structure dry. A Dakota City rebuild contractor can then scope finishes.
