How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Eskridge

Wet insulation behind a shower wall can hold moisture against framing. The crew evaluates removal and airflow to address the water rather than sealing the cavity again.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   A wet room below the bath may need protection while water is recovered upstairs. The crew considers both levels in the removal plan.

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

   Damaged drywall or insulation may need removal so airflow can reach framing. The contractor explains the access before opening the cavity.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Vapor leaving wet materials is removed from the room air by dehumidification. The technician keeps measuring concealed trouble spots.
