   The assessor follows water through grout joints and pipe openings. Lower cavities are checked when an upstairs fixture overflows.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Trapped water under a floor may require selective access. The contractor explains why a covering or trim piece must come out.

   The Genesee drying setup is adjusted when a material remains wet. Completion is based on measured goals rather than appearance.
