How Toilet Overflow Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Campton

1. Remove accessible water

4. Dry and verify progress

   Equipment stays positioned for the material load. The final check documents when structural drying goals are met.

• 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.
