How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Paxton

Cold, damp surfaces can hide moisture after a spill. The specialist confirms the reading with a meter rather than treating a dry appearance as proof.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

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