Measure hidden dampness
The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

The crew checks moisture and visible swelling. Wood that cannot dry safely may need removal.
Can a Whitehall floor look dry while wet underneath?
Yes. Concrete and underlayment may retain moisture after a surface puddle disappears.

No. Water may first appear as a warm patch, damp seam or swollen baseboard.
