   Surface appearance does not reveal a wet subfloor. Meter checks identify materials that need further access or drying.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Trapped water under a floor may require selective access. The contractor explains why a covering or trim piece must come out.

4. Dry and verify progress

   Daily moisture records track the subfloor and wall base. A repair contractor waits for the dry-out before closing finishes.
