2. Trace damp materials

   The team documents wet materials in adjoining rooms, not just the first room.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   A ceiling section may need controlled removal after overhead water damage.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Repeat meter readings show whether affected wood and wallboard are losing moisture.
