How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Marcus

A ceiling cavity beneath the toilet can hold water without active dripping. The lower room needs moisture checks too.

1. Assess the water and safe access

   Bathroom water may hide at the wall base. Initial readings establish the likely spread.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   Pumps collect deeper water while floor tools recover shallow liquid. The crew keeps dirty water away from clean areas.

3. Map wet construction

   Baseboards and doorway transitions can wick beyond the puddle. A moisture map records the boundaries.

4. Dry and record the result

   Sewage affected surfaces receive sanitation after unsuitable materials are removed. Drying continues where materials can remain.
