Extract water beneath the fixture

An aging fitting in an upstairs bathroom can wet drywall and the lower ceiling.
Some bathroom leaks follow winter weather; others come from worn seals. The crew bases cleanup on water category and materials, not season. Many residents own their homes in the covered ZIP codes. A homeowner should photograph the upstairs source and lower ceiling before cleanup changes the scene.
