How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Springfield

Remove surface and pooled water

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.

Open layers holding water
A wet shower wall can contain insulation against framing. Opening the affected section makes moisture assessment and evaporation possible.

Dry and verify the structure
Air movers and dehumidifiers support drying after extraction. Recorded material readings show whether the setup is working.
