How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Braddock Heights

An overflowing tub can push water into baseboards and cabinet edges. Prompt extraction and dehumidification reduce the time those absorbent materials stay wet.

   An extraction technician removes liquid from reachable bathroom flooring before it spreads through seams. The crew checks the adjacent room for a wet edge.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

3. Open layers holding water

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Vapor leaving wet materials is removed from the room air by dehumidification. The technician keeps measuring concealed trouble spots.
