A wet vacuum handles shallow films on vinyl, while a submersible pump deals with an inch or more. The crew matches the tool to the floor.

Map where the water went
Readings go beyond the visible stain, into the toe-kicks, the wall bases and the room next door. The map becomes the plan for equipment.

Open what stays wet
Sheet vinyl sometimes gets lifted along one edge so the plywood below can breathe. The technician decides how much comes up from the readings.

Dry and confirm
A technician returns each day to log temperature, humidity and material readings. Equipment stays until every wet material hits the dry target.
