Common questions
A few things you may be wondering.
Is every toilet leak treated as a sewage backup?
No. A supply-line leak, tank leak, and overflow through the bowl can involve different conditions. We assess the source and affected materials before choosing the cleanup method.
Do you unclog or repair the toilet?
A plumber handles the blockage and plumbing repair. Cleveland Water and Fire Restoration, Inc. handles the resulting water damage assessment, cleanup, and drying.
Should the room below the bathroom be checked?
If water has reached a ceiling, wall, or room below, that area belongs in the assessment too. Tell the First Responder about stains, drips, or other signs you have noticed.
Can affected carpet or drywall stay in place?
That depends on the water source and material condition. Materials affected by contaminated water may need removal. We explain those decisions before the agreed cleanup begins.
