  1. Extract water beneath the fixture

    A sealed ceiling can hold water against joists. The technician creates access where readings and material condition show it is needed.

  4. Dry the structure and verify readings

    Structural drying continues until the measured area reaches its target compared with unaffected material. The team then records completion.
