2. Remove pooled liquid

   The bathroom and adjacent room may need separate extraction passes. The crew tracks where moisture traveled.

3. Map wet construction

   Baseboards and doorway transitions can wick beyond the puddle. A moisture map records the boundaries.

4. Dry and record the result

   Cleanup records include photos, readings and work performed. The insurer decides claim coverage.
