Contain

Plastic sheeting, HEPA air scrubbers, and negative air pressure contain spores, preventing spread to dry rooms.

Remove

Saturated materials like drywall, insulation, and trim that cannot be dried are cut out and bagged for proper disposal.

Dry

Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers work to restore the structure to a normal moisture range, with progress logged daily.
