How Saturated Wall & Drywall Water Extraction Works in Montara

1. Recover accessible water

   A pump crew removes pooled water where conditions permit safe equipment use. Technicians investigate surrounding rooms beyond the location of the deepest puddle.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A technician uses thermal patterns to select areas for closer testing. Moisture measurements check the suspected wetness because temperature alone cannot confirm water.

3. Expose layers that retain water

   Restoration personnel assess swollen flooring for damage that drying cannot reverse. Removal specialists take out unsalvageable layers when the authorized work requires it.

4. Control drying and check progress

   The site supervisor checks equipment performance and the remaining wet footprint. Closing measurements support the transition from mitigation to repair planning.
