Wet wall at a water softener alcove in McCullough Hills

We got called out for a wet lower wall around the water softener alcove in a McCullough Hills home, on both sides of the wall.

The wet drywall wrapped around the alcove and continued on the tiled room side of the same wall, so both faces came off to bare framing. Containment with a zipper door went up before any cutting, in case there was mold inside the wall. Once the studs and bottom plates were exposed, we took moisture meter readings on them.
