How Leak Behind Shower Wall Cleanup Works in Coyle

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

• Stop using the shower while the source is being assessed.
• Shut off the affected water supply if an active leak is present and the valve is safe to reach.
• Avoid touching damp switches or outlets on either side of the wall.
• Move dry belongings away from the adjoining wall where safe.
• Photograph staining and leave exploratory cutting to the crew.
