How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Newcomb

A ceiling stain that fades can still cover damp insulation. The cleanup crew documents readings before new paint or drywall hides the area.

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

   The adjacent room may show no puddle but still have a damp baseboard. Material readings reveal where drying should continue.

3. Open layers holding water

   The ceiling below a bath may hold wet gypsum. The crew keeps people clear of unstable material and plans controlled removal where needed.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A final moisture comparison helps determine when the structure is ready for finish planning. A calendar alone cannot prove dryness.

• Retain dated readings from the drying period.
