Bathtub Leak Repair
The water damage side of a tub leak is handled by the pros: finding where it got out, drying the area and documenting it. The tub or drain itself is repaired by a plumber.
Bathroom Floor Water Damage Cleanup
Tile, vinyl and wood floors around the tub are dried with air movers. Where water got under the flooring, some of it may be lifted to dry the subfloor.
Emergency Bathroom Flood Cleanup
Emergency cleanup starts with turning off the faucet, pulling the drain and extracting standing water before it soaks in.

Drywall beside and below the tub wicks water after an overflow. Wet sections are dried with directed airflow or cut back so the wall cavity can dry.
Bathroom Subfloor Moisture Inspection
The inspection covers the bathroom floor and the ceiling below, since an upstairs overflow often shows up there first.

Water Pooling Around Bathtub Base
Water around the base of the tub after a bath means water is getting past the rim, the drain or the seal.
