1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The crew chooses recovery equipment based on water depth and access. It checks seams and trim after the floor looks clear.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Used shower water can change cleaning and removal decisions. A technician evaluates the actual condition rather than the fixture name.
