A dehumidifier helps only when wet materials have a path to release moisture. The technician assesses access, airflow and the water load.

1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   A tub or shower spill can run across the lower floor. The crew extracts that water before mapping hidden overhead moisture.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   Thermal imaging can point to suspect areas, and material readings confirm moisture. The technician records the findings before opening materials.

   Contaminated toilet water can make porous materials unsuitable to keep. The crew removes affected material and sanitizes the exposed surfaces.

4. Dry the structure and verify readings

   A technician checks moisture progress in drywall, wood and flooring. Equipment remains while those affected materials still need drying.
