Measure hidden dampness
The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim
Do not assume the pipe fix and floor drying have identical coverage. The trades perform different work and keep different records. Discuss with the insurer how to submit both sets of documents.
- Save the pipe condition notes.
- List each affected room.
- Photograph the first visible damp area.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
