How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Candler

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

   Standing water is removed after the source stops and hazards are checked. The technician notes any lower ceiling affected.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

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

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Soaked insulation may block effective drying. The crew removes damaged material and creates access where the assembly requires it.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Equipment stays positioned for the wet layers found, not just the visible bathroom floor. The specialist checks humidity and material moisture.
