1. Remove the pooled water

2. Trace damp materials

   Readings at the ceiling and framing show whether an attic leak moved outward.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Saturated insulation may be removed when it blocks drying of the cavity.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Final moisture notes document the condition before rebuild work is considered.
