Open what stays wet
Sheet vinyl sometimes gets lifted along one edge so the plywood below can breathe. The technician decides how much comes up from the readings.

Dry and confirm
Once the log shows dry, the equipment leaves. The repair contractor then works from a clear record of what was wet and what dried.
