1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   A tub or shower spill can run across the lower floor. The crew extracts that water before mapping hidden overhead moisture.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   The crew checks floor finishes and wall corners as well as the overhead board. Bathroom water rarely follows a neat vertical path.

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

   Structural drying continues until the measured area reaches its target compared with unaffected material. The team then records completion.
