2. Map moisture around the fixture

   Meter readings show whether the wet area extends behind a sink back panel.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Wet finish layers can require careful opening before the subfloor dries.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Air movement and dehumidification continue while daily readings trend toward a dry target.
