How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Bowman

Porous trim can wick an overflow above the original puddle. The crew checks the full wet height and dries or removes material based on condition.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The crew chooses recovery equipment based on water depth and access. It checks seams and trim after the floor looks clear.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Bowman technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Water behind baseboards may call for trim removal to expose the damp edge. The Bowman crew records each affected material.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Air movers support evaporation while dehumidifiers collect vapor. Daily readings show the Bowman crew whether materials are improving.
