How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Richards

Repeated fixture use can keep feeding a hidden wet area. Stop using the shower, correct the source and dry the affected building layers promptly.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   Used shower water requires an assessment of what it touched. The team removes accessible liquid and plans cleaning according to the observed condition.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   Thermal screening helps identify areas for closer testing. The technician confirms suspected wet spots with an appropriate moisture meter.

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

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