How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Dunbar

   Soaked insulation may block effective drying. The crew removes damaged material and creates access where the assembly requires it.

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   Air movers support evaporation while dehumidifiers collect vapor. Daily readings show the Dunbar crew whether materials are improving.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
