How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in New Bloomfield

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The crew chooses recovery equipment based on water depth and access. It checks seams and trim after the floor looks clear.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A shower pan leak often wets wood below the finish. The crew records the affected footprint before equipment is positioned.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   The drying plan considers whether flooring can stay in place. Material condition and contamination determine removal needs.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   After the source is corrected, controlled drying continues until building layers meet goals. A calendar alone does not end the work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A lower ceiling can hold water above the first visible stain. Keeping people clear and inspecting promptly protects against collapse and further saturation.

• Stop showering in the affected stall and keep the floor dry.
• 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.
• Leave concealed floor layers intact until their condition is assessed.
