How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Dike

-
Remove pooled liquid
The bathroom and adjacent room may need separate extraction passes. The crew tracks where moisture traveled.
-
Map wet construction
The crew checks underlayment after visible water is gone. Trapped moisture determines the drying plan.
-
Dry and record the result
