How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Protection

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   The lower room may reveal water that passed through floor penetrations. Moisture mapping includes the ceiling and adjoining surfaces.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   A wet wall cavity sometimes needs a controlled opening. The technician explains the affected layer before cutting.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The Protection team verifies the subfloor and lower ceiling before equipment removal. Rebuilding follows the completed dry-out.
