Remove the overflow
The response team clears standing water around the drain and adjoining floor. Safe photographs show where the overflow had reached.
-
Measure hidden moisture
The technician checks flooring edges and lower walls with a moisture meter. Readings help reveal wet material beyond the visible puddle.

Dry and verify
The drying log tracks progress at the same measured locations. Equipment remains where the structure still needs help releasing moisture.
