How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in New Columbia

Mold risk rises when moisture remains in a closed floor assembly. A measured dry-out tracks wood and drywall, not just the visible bathroom finish.

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

   A ceiling stain below an upstairs tub can cover more than one cavity. The crew measures surrounding gypsum and identifies safe access points.

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

   The crew monitors the opened floor or wall rather than closing it after the surface looks dry. Drying documentation stays with the job record.
