Open what stays wet
Swollen baseboards and soaked carpet pad come out first. Taking out trapped layers gives the air a way to reach the wet subfloor.

Dry and confirm
Stubborn readings call for a second look. The crew checks for water trapped in a cavity, a closed cabinet or a layer that never got opened.
