The painted surface may look dry while water sits above it. A technician checks the hidden assembly before deciding the dry-out is complete.

1. Extract water beneath the fixture

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   Water from a sink can follow a pipe opening before it appears below. Mapping identifies the affected cavity beyond the visible drip.

   A technician checks moisture progress in drywall, wood and flooring. Equipment remains while those affected materials still need drying.
