Trace moisture across the ceiling

Open material that traps water
Soaked insulation and soft drywall may need removal to let wet framing dry. The crew photographs the condition before opening the cavity.
-
Dry the structure and verify readings
The drying team adjusts equipment when a cavity stays wetter than nearby materials. Final readings support the handoff to repair work.
