Toilet Back up in Hungtion Beach, CA

It is hit or miss when you have toilet overflow.  It can either be clean water (category 1) or dirty water ( category 3).  A cat 3 toilet overflow requires much more work as everything needs to be removed and disinfected.

This happened to be a clean water overflow so the damage was minimal.  As you can see from the photo, the technicians are checking the walls to see how far the damage extends. 

Luckily for the customer, this toilet was on the first floor so the damage was minimized to only the bathroom and living room.

Getting equipment on these types of losses early will prevent additional damage.
