How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Gallaway

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 Gallaway 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 Gallaway crew records each affected material.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
