1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts standing water around the toilet and doorway. Less liquid remains to soak the subfloor while drying begins.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   Cabinet backs and toe kicks can hold moisture out of sight. A targeted assessment reaches those likely pockets.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   A wet ceiling cavity can need an opening once the area is safe. The technician checks insulation and drywall condition first.
