03 · Questions

No universal answer replaces an assessment of the actual property.

Does extraction finish the job?

Not necessarily. Extraction removes bulk water; drying and monitoring may still be needed for wet materials and concealed spaces.

What affects the scope?

The source, affected area, materials, access, contamination risk and the amount of moisture that remains all matter.

Should I keep records?

Yes. Photograph conditions when safe, keep receipts, and ask for a written scope and moisture records.
