How Bathroom Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Basom
Bathroom water can wet trim and flooring beneath the ceiling leak. The crew checks these lower surfaces so damp material does not remain overlooked.
-
Extract water beneath the fixture
Water may collect in floor seams below the leak. The extraction team pulls it out and records which materials are affected.

Open material that traps water
