How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Athena

Dirty water calls for cleaning before ordinary drying proceeds. The crew assesses contamination and removes affected porous material that cannot be restored.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   Standing water is removed after the source stops and hazards are checked. The technician notes any lower ceiling affected.

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

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Air movers support evaporation while dehumidifiers collect vapor. Daily readings show the Athena crew whether materials are improving.
