How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Terril

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

2. Map the hidden wet materials

3. Open layers holding water

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.
