1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   The response starts with source control and liquid removal. Air drying alone cannot efficiently handle pooled water under the bathroom.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   The technician compares damp drywall with a dry reference section. This check helps define the drying area beneath the upstairs fixture.

3. Open material that traps water

   Insulation often holds water long after dripping stops. The crew takes out saturated sections to expose framing for controlled drying.

4. Dry the structure and verify readings

   The drying team adjusts equipment when a cavity stays wetter than nearby materials. Final readings support the handoff to repair work.
