How Toilet Leak Into Basement Water Cleanup Works in Costa

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts standing water around the toilet and doorway. Less liquid remains to soak the subfloor while drying begins.

3. Clean and open affected layers

   Porous layers soaked with Category 3 water may require disposal. The crew controls the affected area during cleanup.

• Close the toilet shutoff valve if a supply leak is suspected.
