To "unflood" or clean up after an overflowing toilet, start by shutting off the water supply valve to stop any ongoing water flow. Put on heavy-duty rubber gloves and protective footwear. Use old towels, a wet/dry shop vacuum, or a mop to absorb and remove standing wastewater from the bathroom floor immediately to prevent subfloor rot. Disinfect all exposed flooring surfaces with a strong antibacterial cleaner. Callout type="warning" title="Hygiene Warning": Treat all overflow water as biohazardous waste and wear protective gear. Verification: Check baseboards and flooring panels for moisture saturation after cleanup.
