If your toilet overflows, special techniques may need to be followed to clean up the mess. Be sure you hire professionals that know the difference in the categories of water and what the cleaning protocol is. 

A toilet can overflow from the bowl or the tank. It can also flood your bathroom by the water valve behind the toilet. Depending on where the water comes from determines the category. Read more on our website about the differences on the 3 water damage categories and how we deal with each: https://www.dalworthrestoration.com/water-damage/water-extraction-and-removal-process/water-categorization.html

Water Damage from a Toilet
The bathroom is the most important room in your home, especially if you need to use the toilet. Watching the contents in the toilet water rise to the top and overflow the sides of the bowl is an alarming experience. Toilet water can contaminate your home with harmful bacteria and mold damage that can cause anything from skin irritation to breathing disorders and mycotoxin poisoning. Another major source of water damage at a property is from a busted supply line to a toilet. A supply line is what supplies the water to your toilet. When this breaks and not caught early, the damage can be quite extensive, causing the water to run until you turn it off at the main. Contact Dalworth Restoration for service of your toilet or other water restoration needs.
