-
Find moisture beyond the puddle

-
Remove materials that hold unsafe water
A saturated insulation batt holds water against wood. Removing it can give the cavity access to airflow and dehumidification.
-
Dry the structure and confirm progress
Air movers and dehumidifiers work after bulk extraction. Repeated readings show whether the remaining structure is approaching its drying target.
