How Upstairs Tub Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Eighty Four

  1. Extract water beneath the fixture

    A tub or shower spill can run across the lower floor. The crew extracts that water before mapping hidden overhead moisture.

    Thermal imaging can point to suspect areas, and material readings confirm moisture. The technician records the findings before opening materials.

  3. Open material that traps water

    Soaked insulation and soft drywall may need removal to let wet framing dry. The crew photographs the condition before opening the cavity.

  4. Dry the structure and verify readings

    The drying team adjusts equipment when a cavity stays wetter than nearby materials. Final readings support the handoff to repair work.
