How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Trilla

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 meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Trilla technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Used shower water can change cleaning and removal decisions. A technician evaluates the actual condition rather than the fixture name.

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.
