How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Cotter

Shower leaks can keep drywall damp behind the finish. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials, so source correction and drying matter promptly.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   A pump clears deeper pooling before detail extraction begins. The Cotter crew works from the visible spill toward floor edges.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   Thermal patterns may point toward a damp area, and a moisture meter confirms it. The technician documents materials needing attention.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   The drying plan considers whether flooring can stay in place. Material condition and contamination determine removal needs.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

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