A slow shower pan or tub leak can rot subfloor and drip into the ceiling below before you see a stain. Elite Guardian Mitigation responds across Aurora in about an hour with IICRC-standard crews and local know-how.
Crews test the pan, grout, drain, and supply lines to pinpoint the leak, then use moisture meters and thermal imaging to map how far water has traveled through walls and floors.
Standing water is removed and crews open affected drywall or ceiling sections so trapped moisture, wet insulation, and damaged materials can be cleared and the cavity can dry.
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry framing, subfloor, and cavities. Crews log moisture daily and keep drying until every reading meets IICRC targets, not just until surfaces feel dry.
Crews patch or replace drywall, ceilings, and flooring, reset fixtures, and coordinate tile or pan repair so your bathroom looks right and the leak will not return.
While help is on the way, these first steps, done only where it is safe, limit the damage and protect the insurance claim.
Shut the supply off at the source, or close the home's main valve if the source is not obvious. Stopping the flow limits the damage more than anything else.
Switch off electricity to the affected area, but only if the breaker can be reached without standing in or touching the water.
Get a crew dispatched right away. The sooner extraction and drying begin, the more flooring, drywall, and belongings can be saved.
Take photos and a short video of the water and the affected rooms before anything is moved, so the insurance claim starts strong.
Shower and tub leak cleanups in Aurora generally range from $1,500 to $6,000. The cost depends on how long the leak ran, whether it reached a lower-level ceiling, and how much tile, drywall, and subfloor need replacing. Sudden failures are typically covered by homeowner's insurance, while long-term seepage may not be. Crews document the source and bill your adjuster directly.

Watch for loose or discolored grout, a soft or springy floor near the tub, peeling paint, or a musty smell. A stain on the ceiling below is a clear sign. When you call, crews use moisture meters and thermal imaging to confirm the source and map how far the water has spread.
Crews handle the water damage from start to finish and coordinate the plumbing or tile repair that stops the leak. That includes rebuilding a shower pan, replacing a drain gasket, or repairing supply lines, then drying and restoring the surrounding structure so you deal with one team, not several.
It depends on the cause. Sudden failures, like a burst supply line or a pan that gives way, are usually covered. Slow leaks that went unaddressed for a long time are often excluded as maintenance issues. Crews document the source and timeline carefully and work with your adjuster to support the claim.
Most shower and tub leak jobs dry in three to seven days, depending on how much structure got wet. You can often use other bathrooms while crews work. Once moisture readings are safe, rebuild and tile repair usually take a few more days. Crews keep you updated at every stage.
Aurora crews are on call 24 hours a day, local and fast, and can be on the way within the hour.
