How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Hutto
-
Remove accessible bathroom water

Locate moisture beyond the puddle

-
Open trapped wet materials when needed
Unsound ceiling drywall beneath a tub can require removal. People stay clear until the area is assessed for safety.

Dry, monitor and verify
Dry reference readings provide a target for affected wood and drywall. The crew documents progress before finish work begins.

- Avoid stepping on loose tile or a soft shower curb.
- Keep people clear of a stained or sagging ceiling below.
- Photograph recurring damp spots and note when they appear.
