2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Moisture meters reveal damp gypsum and flooring that a visual check may miss.

   Safe access is planned around electrical exposure and unstable overhead finishes.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The technician adjusts equipment if a ceiling cavity stays damp after initial drying.
