How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Wana

Mold risk rises when moisture remains in a closed floor assembly. A measured dry-out tracks wood and drywall, not just the visible bathroom finish.

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 ceiling stain below an upstairs tub can cover more than one cavity. The crew measures surrounding gypsum and identifies safe access points.

3. Open layers holding water

   Swollen baseboard can hide a damp wall edge. Removing damaged trim can reveal the material that still needs drying.

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.

• Describe uncertain leak timing as uncertain.
• Record when fixture use stopped.
