I want to cry, how to clean this up fast?

[Justwhy11]

3 month old and 5 year old. Toilet has leaked everywhere overnight, ds did not flush last night, I didn’t go in to check as have an en-suite. It smells awful. There’s a pool of dirty water covering the floor. I want to cry. Neighbour has stopped the leak but now I don’t know where to begin cleaning this? It’s the only loo with a bath in it and obviously will need the bath later. So stressed!! I’ve got bleach or dettol wipes but not sure they disinfect. Could really do without this. No DH as he’s abroad all week.

We had this and I cleared up the worst with towels that I then threw out as I didn’t know what else to do. Then I used anti bac wipes, then mopped the floor with some cleaner and bleach in it.

What I'd do: put on gloves. Use old towel to mop up the water. Wring into bath. When what's on the floor is mopped up, put towel into washing machine on hottest setting. Then mop floor with hot water with bleach in it and also clean bath with bleach.

Of course bleach disinfects, that's the point of it :)

Mop up the liquid into a bucket as much as you can, then with a different mop, clean with fresh soapy/ disinfectant water, then dry off, chuck out dirty mop

Do you have some towels you can bin or use as rags afterwards? Rubber gloves on, soak up what you can, wring towels into bath (is bath draining?), go back for more. When dryish, get mop with bleach solution and mop floor, preferably with two bucket technique. Bleach will work for disinfecting this. Bleach the bath after.

Mop to soak up the water and wring it out into a bucket that you then flush down the loo. Dry the floor with kitchen roll then mop (I’d use a different mop) with bleach or disinfectant twice. Open the window too!
has the water back up from the toilet being blocked or has it been the flush that’s been running continuously? If it’s mostly “flush” water then it should be fairly clean water.

Thanks @Khvdrt @sunnydayhereandnow just the absolute worst thing to wake up to. I’ve got some towels and will start with that. I don’t think I will ever think it’s clean again!! So gross!

Mop the mess up with kitchen paper and put in it the outside bin. Wipe the floor with some cleaning fluid like cif, or the wipes. Open the window to let it dry out.

Sounds like the outflow of your loo is broken, obviously do t use it til it is fixed.

Don't panic!

Use cold water with bleach. It doesn't work properly in hot water.

Very doubtful that one child not flushing is the cause.

Just mop it up and use bleach everywhere. Then call a plumber.
