Remove the escaped heating water
When water reaches carpet, the technician checks the padding beneath it. Extraction targets wet layers, not only the visible surface.

Open only materials that hold water

Run equipment and verify drying
A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Glenwood crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
