1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   The crew removes standing water from the lower room before it reaches more flooring and trim. The plumber handles the upstairs source.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   Thermal imaging can point to suspect areas, and material readings confirm moisture. The technician records the findings before opening materials.

   A sealed ceiling can hold water against joists. The technician creates access where readings and material condition show it is needed.
