Bathroom water may hide at the wall base. Initial readings establish the likely spread.
-
Remove pooled liquid
Contaminated liquid is collected with appropriate protective methods. Remaining surfaces are prepared for cleaning.
-
Map wet construction
The crew checks underlayment after visible water is gone. Trapped moisture determines the drying plan.
