-
Remove and sanitize affected materials
A Shannon wall base that absorbed wastewater may need to be opened. Suitable hard materials receive cleaning and sanitizing.

Dry and record retained structure
A Shannon crew uses airflow and dehumidification where the retained materials and conditions support it. Repeat checks track progress.
