How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Hatch

A lower ceiling can hold water above the first visible stain. Keeping people clear and inspecting promptly protects against collapse and further saturation.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The extraction team lifts water from hard surfaces and wet coverings. Less liquid remains to evaporate into the Hatch home.

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

   Unsound ceiling drywall beneath a tub can require removal. People stay clear until the area is assessed for safety.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The Hatch team verifies the subfloor and lower ceiling before equipment removal. Rebuilding follows the completed dry-out.
