How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Armour

Water that reaches insulation does not disappear when the lower ceiling stops dripping. A technician checks the cavity and removes soaked material where needed.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   Portable recovery tools reach a tight bathroom where larger hoses may be awkward. Technicians then check nearby rooms for spread.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   After the source is corrected, controlled drying continues until building layers meet goals. A calendar alone does not end the work.
