How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Faxon

Remove surface and pooled water

Open layers holding water

Can overflow water reach a room below?
Yes. Water can pass through the bath floor around penetrations and collect above a lower ceiling. Keep clear of wet electrical fixtures and sagging drywall while the crew assesses the area.
