1. Identify the moisture source
The job should begin by understanding why the area became wet or damp. Remediation without moisture correction can set the stage for recurrence.
2. Define the affected area
Visible growth may not show the full extent of a problem. Building history, moisture readings, inspection findings, and accessible observations can help define the work area.
3. Control the work area
Depending on the scope, containment and dust-control practices can help keep debris from moving into unaffected areas during removal and cleaning.
4. Remove or clean affected materials
Some materials can be cleaned and dried; others may need to be removed when they are heavily affected or cannot be reliably restored.
5. Dry and address the cause
The area should be dried and the source of water or humidity corrected. Rebuilding before the area is ready can trap the same problem behind new finishes.
