2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Used shower water can change cleaning and removal decisions. A technician evaluates the actual condition rather than the fixture name.

   Dry reference readings provide a target for affected wood and drywall. The crew documents progress before finish work begins.
