How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Hilltop

A lower ceiling can hold water above the first visible stain. Keeping people clear and inspecting promptly protects against collapse and further saturation.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

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

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   A meter checks subfloor and wallboard beside the fixture. The Hilltop technician compares readings with dry material nearby.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The technician adjusts airflow when one cavity dries slower than another. A record shows what was measured during the job.

• Describe water condition as observed
• Report the loss directly to the insurer

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
