To safely remove standing water from a clogged bathtub before attempting repairs, use a plastic bucket and a disposable cup or small bowl to bail out the water manually. Scoop the water and pour it down a nearby working toilet or utility sink. For remaining shallow puddles, use an old bath towel to soak up the water and wring it out into a bucket until the tub floor is completely dry. Verification: Inspect the cleared bathtub basin to ensure zero standing water remains before starting plumbing work.
