Standing water against wall bases gives moisture a path into drywall. The first 24 to 48 hours matter, so extraction and drying begin promptly. The response team notes how high the water touched the lower wall.
-
Remove the overflow
Standing drain water is removed with suitable extraction equipment. The crew protects unaffected contents while defining the wet boundary.

The technician checks flooring edges and lower walls with a moisture meter. Readings help reveal wet material beyond the visible puddle.
-
Handle affected materials

A verified dry condition closes the mitigation phase. Later drywall, paint or flooring work follows its own scope.
