2. Measure concealed moisture

   The technician takes readings at the toilet base, threshold and nearby wall bottoms. Those points show how far the spill moved.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Damaged cabinet bases or wall sections are assessed for retention. Drying access depends on the assembly and contamination.

4. Dry and verify progress

   Humidity control removes water vapor as damp materials release it. The crew verifies the affected layers at the end.
