How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Due West

A lower ceiling can hold water above the first visible stain. Keeping people clear and inspecting promptly protects against collapse and further saturation.

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

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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