How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Calhoun
Porous materials that cannot be properly cleaned or dried may need removal. The technician bases that decision on water condition and actual material damage.
-
Remove surface and pooled water
An extraction technician removes liquid from reachable bathroom flooring before it spreads through seams. The crew checks the adjacent room for a wet edge.

Map the hidden wet materials
A ceiling stain below an upstairs tub can cover more than one cavity. The crew measures surrounding gypsum and identifies safe access points.

Open layers holding water
A wet shower wall can contain insulation against framing. Opening the affected section makes moisture assessment and evaporation possible.

Dry and verify the structure
Air movers and dehumidifiers support drying after extraction. Recorded material readings show whether the setup is working.
