How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Lake Worth

A ceiling stain that fades can still cover damp insulation. The cleanup crew documents readings before new paint or drywall hides the area.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

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
