2. Map moisture around the fixture

   An upstairs loss prompts the restoration worker to examine the ceiling below.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   The crew opens a trapped area when airflow cannot reach moisture behind it.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Air movement and dehumidification continue while daily readings trend toward a dry target.
