Water Remediation After a Toilet Overflow

2/13/2020 (Permalink)

A clogged toilet bowl or tank malfunction can lead to a nasty overflow in your home.  Overflowing water can cause severe damage to floors and baseboards surrounding the malfunctioned toilet.   Contaminated water may also seep through walls and insulation down to lower floors if the toilet is found on an upper level.  Water damage requires immediate attention to prevent further damage caused by sitting water.

SERVPRO of Oxford / Batesville / Clarksdale has a team of trained professionals that know exactly how to restore your home in a timely manner.  Upon arrival, our team will identify the extent and severity of the seen and unseen damage.  This is possible using hygrometers and moisture detectors.  These tools allow us to ensure that no water is left to mold or mildew inside wall cavities.  Water is then extracted using heavy duty pumps so that the drying process will be quick and painless.  In some instances, parts of walls and baseboards may need to be removed.  However, we can promise that customers will be walked through their specific remediation plan prior to demolition.  After drying, all areas that were potentially contaminated by the overflowing water are sanitized.  We do this to ensure no future mold or bacterial growth.
