2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Wrangell technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   A wet wall cavity sometimes needs a controlled opening. The technician explains the affected layer before cutting.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Equipment stays positioned for the wet layers found, not just the visible bathroom floor. The specialist checks humidity and material moisture.
