2. Remove pooled liquid

   Extraction begins at accessible pools and continues along the flow path. Wet coverings are assessed for salvage.

3. Map wet construction

   A stained ceiling may not show the full wet cavity. The specialist tests around the visible mark.

4. Dry and record the result

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