Ceiling drywall, insulation, upper subfloor and room contents may stay damp beyond the visible pool. Water follows joists sideways, so the first drip may be several feet from the fixture.

The first safe step is controlling the source. Afterward, a local crew extracts liquid, checks cavities and monitors drying, leaving new drywall or flooring for the rebuild stage.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   Water trapped behind baseboards may call for controlled opening. The crew exposes wet framing only where the findings support it.
