2. Map contamination and moisture

   The crew traces the overflow path from the fixture into adjoining materials.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The technician explains why each affected material stays or leaves during Category 3 cleanup.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Before new finishes are planned, technicians verify the affected assembly has dried.
