Locate moisture beyond the puddle

Open trapped wet materials when needed
A wet wall cavity sometimes needs a controlled opening. The technician explains the affected layer before cutting.

Dry, monitor and verify
Air movers support evaporation while dehumidifiers collect vapor. Daily readings show the Westphalia crew whether materials are improving.
