Used wash water can leave residue as well as moisture. The technician assesses cleaning needs and material condition before drying.

3. Open materials that trap water

   Used wash water changes whether porous pieces should stay. The contractor assesses contamination before retaining them.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A documented dry-out precedes new finishes. The technician provides measurements that describe the restoration stage.
