1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   The crew removes standing water from the lower room before it reaches more flooring and trim. The plumber handles the upstairs source.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   Water from a sink can follow a pipe opening before it appears below. Mapping identifies the affected cavity beyond the visible drip.

3. Open material that traps water

   Contaminated toilet water can make porous materials unsuitable to keep. The crew removes affected material and sanitizes the exposed surfaces.

4. Dry the structure and verify readings

   The last step is a moisture check, not a visual guess. The technician saves the readings before the ceiling is closed and finished.
