Wet bathroom ceiling above the tub in Spring Valley

We got called out for a wet bathroom ceiling above the tub in a Spring Valley home near Southern Hills.

The thermal scan marked the wet ceiling, and opening it exposed the joists and plumbing along with wet insulation. The floor tile and baseboard came up to the slab too. Containment went up before any of it came out, in case there was mold, and we checked the exposed joists with a pin moisture meter as the room dried.
