Water beneath vinyl has limited airflow. A drying specialist determines whether the assembly can dry in place before mold risk increases.

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts standing water around the toilet and doorway. Less liquid remains to soak the subfloor while drying begins.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   The technician takes readings at the toilet base, threshold and nearby wall bottoms. Those points show how far the spill moved.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Porous layers soaked with Category 3 water may require disposal. The crew controls the affected area during cleanup.

4. Dry and verify progress

   The technician compares wet points with appropriate dry references. Persistent readings prompt another look at concealed water.
