3. Open trapped-water areas

   Contaminated porous material may need removal after a used-water release. The Pageton team cleans and sanitizes affected surfaces as appropriate.

4. Dry and verify

   A drying record lists the equipment, materials and readings. That evidence helps the Pageton property owner plan finish work.
