How Floor Drain Backup Cleanup Works in Stockton

-
Remove the overflow

Measure hidden moisture

Handle affected materials
A technician evaluates whether trim, underlayment or insulation holds water. Necessary access helps the exposed structure dry.

Dry and verify
The crew adjusts drying equipment as moisture readings change. A final record shows the condition of affected walls and floors.
