The team asks what happened, what the owner wants to keep and what deadline applies. Everyone is treated with respect.
Affected rooms are separated from clean ones, and hauling paths are planned. This keeps odor and dust from spreading.
Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed so urine does not stay in the structure. Hard surfaces are scrubbed.
Odor is treated where it started, and each room is inspected. The owner receives notes about remaining damage or follow-up work.
