How Laminate, Vinyl and LVP Extraction and Drying Work
-
Check the source and safe access

Remove the water
Pumps or extractors clear pooled water. Adjacent areas matter because water may run along plank channels well past the visible wet edge.

Measure drying progress
The crew tests beneath the covering, lifts affected sections where needed, and dries the base layer. Repeated readings show when affected materials reach drying targets.
