How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Breese

Porous materials that cannot be properly cleaned or dried may need removal. The technician bases that decision on water condition and actual material damage.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   The first pass clears standing water near the fixture. The technician then evaluates carpet, trim and other absorbent materials for retained liquid.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   Moisture can follow framing away from a leaking pan. The assessor tests the route instead of assuming damage ends at the shower curb.

3. Open layers holding water

   Swollen baseboard can hide a damp wall edge. Removing damaged trim can reveal the material that still needs drying.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The technician checks wood, drywall and room humidity as the job progresses. Equipment placement changes if a wet area lags.
