Drying before concealment
Retained framing, subfloors, slabs and cavities should be verified before replacement finishes conceal them.
Rebuildable demolition boundaries
Selective removal should account for fastening, transitions, fire/smoke assemblies, cabinets, flooring and how replacement materials will tie into retained work.
Product requirements
Flooring, coatings, adhesives and finish systems may impose substrate moisture and acclimation requirements beyond a general drying endpoint.
