4. Dry and verify

   A drying record lists the equipment, materials and readings. That evidence helps the Carlisle property owner plan finish work.

• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
