   The response team clears standing water around the drain and adjoining floor. Safe photographs show where the overflow had reached.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   Pinless readings can screen broad areas without opening every finish. The technician follows suspicious spots with closer material checks.

3. Handle affected materials

   The mitigation team separates contaminated contents from clean items. Material handling follows the source and category of the drain water.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew adjusts drying equipment as moisture readings change. A final record shows the condition of affected walls and floors.
