The painted surface may look dry while water sits above it. A technician checks the hidden assembly before deciding the dry-out is complete.
-

Bathroom Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Questions in Cairo
Is shower water clean enough to ignore in Cairo?

How does a Cairo crew find hidden bathroom water?
The technician checks material readings beyond the stain and compares them with dry areas. Thermal imaging may help identify suspect pockets.
What happens after the Cairo ceiling dries?
The final readings support a repair scope for drywall, paint and any affected flooring. Source repair upstairs is handled by the appropriate trade.
What should Cairo residents do before the crew arrives?
Stop using the fixture, keep clear of bowed drywall and photograph the damage from a safe position. Move small belongings only when the room is safe.
