1. Stop the source safely

   The owner keeps away from wet outlets while a qualified trade addresses any electrical hazard. Extraction begins when access is safe. Wet cords remain untouched until the electrical condition is addressed.

2. Extract reachable water

   The crew removes liquid from the Palos Heights floor before it continues soaking into seams. Cabinet edges receive attention. The operator then checks transitions where water could cross into another room.

3. Map concealed moisture

   A ceiling below the kitchen receives attention when water travels between floors. Unsafe sagging material stays off limits. Ceiling insulation may hold water above a visible mark.

4. Dry and verify

   Wet material that cannot dry in place may be removed. The remaining assembly receives controlled airflow. Open cavities receive readings before they are closed again.
