   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
