How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Savanna

A small surface puddle may mask wider dampness in a wall base. Extraction alone is followed by structural drying.

1. Assess the water and safe access

   The crew checks electrical exposure before entering the wet bathroom. Water category determines protective handling.

2. Remove pooled liquid

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

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.
