   A Caledonia drying contractor records where readings stay high. The map guides access and later progress checks.

3. Open materials that trap water

   A toe kick can be removed to reach water under cabinets. The restoration team limits removal to what the condition calls for.

• Avoid wet plugs and electrical connections behind the appliance.
