   A meter helps locate damp building layers after the visible sewage is gone.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The technician explains why each affected material stays or leaves during Category 3 cleanup.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Dehumidifiers and air movers address the remaining wet structure after sanitizing.
