1. Remove accessible water

   Puddles near the vanity and tub are removed first. Waste-contaminated liquid calls for appropriate containment and protective methods.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   Dry reference measurements help interpret affected material readings. The crew documents the comparison during the job.

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.
