3. Open trapped-water areas

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Okarche crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers draw moisture from exposed materials. Daily readings show the Okarche crew whether drying is progressing.
