Bathroom Leak Water Damage
Bathroom leaks may come from supply pipes, wastes, baths, showers, toilets, basins or failed connections. The water can remain beneath tiles and floors or damage ceilings and rooms below.
My HomeDry assesses the resulting water route after the source has been repaired, including floor layers, walls, fitted areas and lower-level ceilings.
Tiled surfaces can hide moisture
Tiles and waterproof finishes may restrict evaporation while water remains within screed, boards, adhesive or voids.
Bathrooms above other rooms
The area below should be inspected where water may have passed through the floor construction, especially around wastes and service penetrations.
Clean water and wastewater are different
A supply-pipe leak is not treated the same as a toilet overflow or contaminated wastewater incident. Hygiene capability must be confirmed where contamination is possible.
