        "text": "Water extraction is the process of physically removing standing water and moisture from surfaces using specialized equipment like powerful wet vacuums or pumps. It's the immediate first step. Structural drying, on the other hand, involves using dehumidifiers, air movers, and other specialized drying equipment to remove moisture that has absorbed into building materials like drywall, wood, and insulation. This secondary phase is critical to prevent mold growth and structural integrity issues by thoroughly drying hidden moisture that extraction cannot reach.",
