How Bathtub Overflow Water Removal Works in Strafford

Thermal cameras and meters check under the tub, behind the vanity and in the ceiling below.
Step 3: Drying and Dehumidification Phase
Equipment runs continuously, and readings are logged each day until materials are dry.

Worn caulk between the tub and wall lets water run behind the tub surround.

Clogged Bathtub Drain Pipe
Hair and soap buildup in the drain pipe slows draining until the tub overflows during use.
Malfunctioning Overflow Drain Cover
