The work often covers:
- Finding every spot where fluids reached, including under flooring and behind baseboards
- Documentation and photos that a landlord, buyer or insurer may ask for
- Removal of insects and other secondary effects of a delayed discovery
- Treatment or sealing of subfloor and other porous building materials
