How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Serena

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

   A pump clears deeper pooling before detail extraction begins. The Serena crew works from the visible spill toward floor edges.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   The Serena assessment includes trim, cabinets and wall bases near the tub. Readings show where surface cleanup is insufficient.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The technician adjusts airflow when one cavity dries slower than another. A record shows what was measured during the job.
