-
Extract water beneath the fixture

Open material that traps water
Soaked insulation and soft drywall may need removal to let wet framing dry. The crew photographs the condition before opening the cavity.

Dry the structure and verify readings
The crew logs equipment use and material readings for the claim record. Paint and board replacement follow the verified dry-out.
