   Moisture readings show whether a seemingly dry surface still hides wet backing.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The technician explains why each affected material stays or leaves during Category 3 cleanup.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Before new finishes are planned, technicians verify the affected assembly has dried.
