How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Emigrant Gap

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   The lower room may reveal water that passed through floor penetrations. Moisture mapping includes the ceiling and adjoining surfaces.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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