How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Geddes

Porous materials that cannot be properly cleaned or dried may need removal. The technician bases that decision on water condition and actual material damage.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   A tub overflow may leave shallow water under the vanity. The operator uses suitable extraction tools and notes where the visible pool ends.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   A meter checks the subfloor and nearby wall against comparable dry material. The technician marks the wet boundary before setting equipment.

3. Open layers holding water

   Porous material affected by dirty water may not be suitable to keep. The restoration team documents its condition and handles it accordingly.

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.
