Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet organic materials. A wet paper backing can support growth if drying is delayed.

1. Extract liquid water

   A burst supply connection may flood the space under a refrigerator. The crew clears pooled water from the kitchen and identifies other rooms touched by the flow.

2. Trace the wet layers

   A damp ceiling below the kitchen can indicate water between joists. Technicians check both sides of the assembly to locate the materials holding moisture.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Wet insulation beneath the kitchen can hold water against framing. Technicians assess whether it must come out before the cavity receives drying air.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Air movement is adjusted as wet sections change during the job. Documented moisture trends show which area still needs attention.
