How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Spivey

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   A pump clears deeper pooling before detail extraction begins. The Spivey crew works from the visible spill toward floor edges.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Spivey technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   The drying plan considers whether flooring can stay in place. Material condition and contamination determine removal needs.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A bathroom fan moves room air but cannot establish the condition of wood beneath tile. Moisture readings show whether drying needs to continue.

• Stop showering in the affected stall and keep the floor dry.
• 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.
• Leave concealed floor layers intact until their condition is assessed.
