How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Angel Fire

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The extraction team lifts water from hard surfaces and wet coverings. Less liquid remains to evaporate into the Angel Fire home.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

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

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Used shower water can change cleaning and removal decisions. A technician evaluates the actual condition rather than the fixture name.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The Angel Fire team verifies the subfloor and lower ceiling before equipment removal. Rebuilding follows the completed dry-out.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Dirty water calls for cleaning before ordinary drying proceeds. The crew assesses contamination and removes affected porous material that cannot be restored.

• 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.
