Toilet Overflow Water Damage

Stop continued flow if safe

If the toilet is still overflowing and you can safely stop it, shut off the fixture supply or address the immediate cause.

Consider contamination

If the overflow contains sewage or originates from a backed-up drain line, avoid direct contact and treat it as a contamination concern.

Dry affected materials

Flooring, baseboards, drywall, and adjacent materials may need evaluation and drying.
