How Toilet Overflow Water Damage Works in Durham

An upstairs spill may wet ceiling paper and insulation. The technician checks the lower cavity because mold may begin growing on damp material in 24 to 48 hours.

   Damaged cabinet bases or wall sections are assessed for retention. Drying access depends on the assembly and contamination.
