1. Remove the overflow

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

2. Measure hidden moisture

   A water damage worker records initial readings before air movers begin. Later measurements show whether the damp footprint is shrinking.

3. Handle affected materials

   A technician evaluates whether trim, underlayment or insulation holds water. Necessary access helps the exposed structure dry.

4. Dry and verify

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