1. Remove surface and pooled water

   A tub overflow may leave shallow water under the vanity. The operator uses suitable extraction tools and notes where the visible pool ends.

3. Open layers holding water

   The ceiling below a bath may hold wet gypsum. The crew keeps people clear of unstable material and plans controlled removal where needed.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Vapor leaving wet materials is removed from the room air by dehumidification. The technician keeps measuring concealed trouble spots.
