How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Hamersville
-
Remove accessible bathroom water

Open trapped wet materials when needed
Soaked insulation may block effective drying. The crew removes damaged material and creates access where the assembly requires it.

Dry, monitor and verify

- Avoid stepping on loose tile or a soft shower curb.
- Keep people clear of a stained or sagging ceiling below.
- Photograph recurring damp spots and note when they appear.
