How Upstairs Shower Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Tram

  1. Extract water beneath the fixture

    The crew removes standing water from the lower room before it reaches more flooring and trim. The plumber handles the upstairs source.

  2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

    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

    Wet board that has lost strength cannot be treated like firm drywall. The technician removes it safely and records the work.

  4. Dry the structure and verify readings

    A technician checks moisture progress in drywall, wood and flooring. Equipment remains while those affected materials still need drying.
