A frozen pipe leak may soak carpet padding even when the carpet top feels nearly dry. The technician checks beneath the surface before choosing drying steps.

2. Trace moisture through materials

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   The crew assesses whether floor covering can dry in place or must be lifted.

4. Dry and verify the structure
