How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Pawling

Softened wallboard may lose strength after repeated wetting. The technician assesses material condition before it is covered by new paint.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

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

4. Dry, monitor and verify
