The crew isolates the affected rooms and limits airflow so germs do not travel. Waste containers and cleaning supplies are staged inside the zone.

4. Final walk-through
The crew goes through the space with the owner and explains what was done. Waste leaves in sealed containers, and questions get plain answers.
