Wet paper-faced drywall provides a place for growth if moisture stays trapped. The crew removes saturated sections when drying in place is not suitable.
-
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.
