1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts standing water around the toilet and doorway. Less liquid remains to soak the subfloor while drying begins.

2. Measure concealed moisture

3. Clean and open affected layers

   The water category affects cleaning and material decisions. A sanitary supply spill is handled differently from a sewer backup.
