How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Fittstown

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Fittstown 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 Fittstown crew records each affected material.

4. Dry, monitor and verify
