Dry-looking trim does not prove the cavity behind it is dry. Repeat readings show whether the drying plan is working.

1. Remove the pooled water

   Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.

2. Trace damp materials

   Readings at the ceiling and framing show whether an attic leak moved outward.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   The technician opens wet materials only where needed to reach retained water.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Dehumidifiers pull water from the air as air movers work across wet surfaces.
