How Toilet Overflow Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Campbell Hall

1. Remove accessible water

   Puddles near the vanity and tub are removed first. Waste-contaminated liquid calls for appropriate containment and protective methods.

2. Measure concealed moisture

   Surface appearance does not reveal a wet subfloor. Meter checks identify materials that need further access or drying.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Porous layers soaked with Category 3 water may require disposal. The crew controls the affected area during cleanup.

4. Dry and verify progress

   Humidity control removes water vapor as damp materials release it. The crew verifies the affected layers at the end.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Drywall paper and wood subfloor can hold water after the tile is wiped. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials, so extraction and drying should begin promptly.

• Shut off toilet water if the valve is safely accessible.
• Keep everyone out of the room beneath a bulging ceiling.
• Avoid touching wet lights, fans, switches or outlets.
• Do not puncture ceiling bubbles or pull down loose drywall.
