1. Assess the water and safe access

   An upstairs spill gets assessed at the source and the lower room. The technician notes what the water touched.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   The bathroom and adjacent room may need separate extraction passes. The crew tracks where moisture traveled.

3. Map wet construction

   Meters compare the floor near the toilet with unaffected areas. The technician checks the subfloor and wall bases.

4. Dry and record the result

   A wet lower ceiling may require separate air movement. The crew tracks it apart from the bathroom floor.
