How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Herrick

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Herrick 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 Herrick 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.
