Contain
The work area is sealed under negative air so cutting into a wall or cabinet does not spread spores through the house.
Remove
Affected drywall, cabinet backing or subfloor comes out, and colonized material is bagged through the containment.
Dry
Air movers and a dehumidifier bring the cavity to a documented dry standard before any repair begins.
