How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Clark

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

   At the Clark property, extraction starts with safely reachable water. Wet electrical equipment remains outside the work area until assessed.

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

   The drying plan considers whether flooring can stay in place. Material condition and contamination determine removal needs.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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