How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Alma

A household fan may dry exposed tile while the subfloor stays damp. Material readings show whether professional access and drying are needed.

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

   A sealed tile assembly can trap water beneath it. The technician identifies the access required for drying, with finish work addressed later.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Once the affected layers reach the project target, the owner can move toward rebuilding. The source trade confirms the fixture fault has been corrected.
