1. Remove surface and pooled water

   Used shower water requires an assessment of what it touched. The team removes accessible liquid and plans cleaning according to the observed condition.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   A meter checks the subfloor and nearby wall against comparable dry material. The technician marks the wet boundary before setting equipment.

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

   Air movers and dehumidifiers support drying after extraction. Recorded material readings show whether the setup is working.
