1. Establish safe access

   A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.

   Cleaning follows removal of saturated debris. Technicians treat exposed surfaces appropriate to the contamination.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.
