How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Afton

The crew should document damp materials as cleanup begins. Those readings establish where equipment and follow-up checks belong.

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

   Technicians lift standing water before placing drying equipment. Category 3 materials receive careful handling.

3. Map wet construction

   Meters compare the floor near the toilet with unaffected areas. The technician checks the subfloor and wall bases.

4. Dry and record the result

   A wet lower ceiling may require separate air movement. The crew tracks it apart from the bathroom floor.
