How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Somerville

Water at the toilet base can seep through floor openings. The crew follows that path before it reaches a lower ceiling.

1. Assess the water and safe access

   A technician identifies where the toilet water began and whether waste is present. Safe access guides the first extraction step.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   A hard floor can still hold water at seams. Recovery tools address the visible spill before hidden layers are checked.

3. Map wet construction

   Flooring material changes how water moves. Instrument readings identify layers needing equipment.

4. Dry and record the result

   The dry out is complete when material conditions support it. Rebuilding finishes is assessed afterward.
