How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Cheraw

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A shower pan leak may leave wood or gypsum damp below a dry-looking tile surface, so the crew measures the concealed layers.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   A wet room below the bath may need protection while water is recovered upstairs. The crew considers both levels in the removal plan.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   Cabinet bases and floor edges can hold water after a spill. The crew records affected points for later comparison.

3. Open layers holding water

   The ceiling below a bath may hold wet gypsum. The crew keeps people clear of unstable material and plans controlled removal where needed.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Air movers and dehumidifiers support drying after extraction. Recorded material readings show whether the setup is working.
