Carpet can hold more liquid than the top feels like. Extraction tools pull water from the textile and pad area.

Remove material that holds water
Porous material that cannot dry safely is taken out before closing the drying phase. Rebuild follows later.

Dry and verify materials
The technician records progress during the dry out. Those notes describe the work for the homeowner and an insurance claim.
