1. Remove accessible water

   The extraction technician pulls standing water from the kitchen surface and accessible floor edges. In Waupaca, the source trade addresses the failed appliance or connection.

2. Map the wet materials

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Swollen composite parts sometimes cannot be saved by airflow alone. The technician identifies removal needs in the Waupaca kitchen.
