How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Astoria

The crew should document damp materials as cleanup begins. Those readings establish where equipment and follow-up checks belong.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   Technicians lift standing water before placing drying equipment. Category 3 materials receive careful handling.

3. Map wet construction
