How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Copen

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   At the Copen property, extraction starts with safely reachable water. Wet electrical equipment remains outside the work area until assessed.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Used shower water can change cleaning and removal decisions. A technician evaluates the actual condition rather than the fixture name.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Dry reference readings provide a target for affected wood and drywall. The crew documents progress before finish work begins.
