Commercial Water Loss Cause and How to Prevent It From Happening to You.

3/20/2019 (Permalink)

Within the last five months, SERVPRO of Milwaukie/Happy Valley has responded to the same commercial property on three separate occasions. All three losses were identical involving the flushing of items down the toilet that should not be flushed. Because of these losses, I feel it is important to note what items that you should not flush down a toilet.

  • Feminine products
  • Food
  • Baby wipes
  • Adult and baby diapers
  • Paper towels
  • Cotton balls
  • Dental floss

The above items can cause toilet pipes to get clogged resulting in toilet overflows. It is best to dispose of those items in your nearest trashcan. If you do happen to have a toilet overflow, don’t hesitate to call SERVPRO of Milwaukie/Happy Valley. We are available to handle even your worst toilet overflows 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days at year. Call us today at 503-652-3997. We will make it “Like it never even happened.”
