How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Wyanet
-
Remove accessible bathroom water

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A towel can clear tile while subfloor remains wet. Early extraction reduces the water load and gives structural drying a better start.
- Turn off the faucet and shut the bathroom door only if doing so is safe.
- Keep people away from wet outlets and dripping fixtures below.
- Move small dry items from the spill path without crossing slippery flooring.
- Photograph the tub, floor and any lower ceiling stain from safe positions.
- Leave swollen flooring and ceiling bulges undisturbed for the crew to assess.

Are towels enough after a bathtub overflows?
