How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Vevay

Porous trim can wick an overflow above the original puddle. The crew checks the full wet height and dries or removes material based on condition.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The crew chooses recovery equipment based on water depth and access. It checks seams and trim after the floor looks clear.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A shower pan leak often wets wood below the finish. The crew records the affected footprint before equipment is positioned.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Soaked insulation may block effective drying. The crew removes damaged material and creates access where the assembly requires it.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Equipment stays positioned for the wet layers found, not just the visible bathroom floor. The specialist checks humidity and material moisture.
