After visible water is gone
Look beyond a dry surface.
Ask how affected materials will be assessed and how progress will be measured. Phoenix heat alone does not establish that a wall cavity or floor assembly is dry.
Understand drying and hidden moisture ↗
A better assessment
Describe what changed.
A stain, lifted floor edge or damp baseboard helps frame the conversation. State what you observed, when it started and whether the source is known.
