How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Crumpler

A bathroom fan moves room air but cannot establish the condition of wood beneath tile. Moisture readings show whether drying needs to continue.

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 shower pan leak often wets wood below the finish. The crew records the affected footprint before equipment is positioned.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

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.
