How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Dexter

Wet drywall may wick upward after the bathroom floor looks dry. Monitoring reveals whether the affected wall is still changing.

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

   The bathroom and adjacent room may need separate extraction passes. The crew tracks where moisture traveled.

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

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