1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   At the Madison property, extraction starts with safely reachable water. Wet electrical equipment remains outside the work area until assessed.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Madison technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Water behind baseboards may call for trim removal to expose the damp edge. The Madison crew records each affected material.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   After the source is corrected, controlled drying continues until building layers meet goals. A calendar alone does not end the work.
