How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Potlatch

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

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Equipment stays positioned for the wet layers found, not just the visible bathroom floor. The specialist checks humidity and material moisture.
