How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Chadbourn

Time is the one thing a homeowner cannot buy back. Each hour sewage sits, it moves deeper into the subfloor and the framing. A call now means less to remove and less to dry.

1. Extract the sewage

   Standing sewage is the first thing to go. The extraction specialist picks a pump for the depth and a wand tool for carpet and tight corners, and keeps going until the floor stops giving up liquid.

2. Map where it traveled

   Baseboards, door casings and cabinet toe-kicks are checked first, since sewage wicks upward there. The numbers tell the crew how high the cut needs to go.

3. Cut out what it soaked

   Only what is wet or contaminated comes out, and the technician logs every item. That list is the record an adjuster sees later.

4. Sanitize, dry and check

   Floors, slabs and framing are scrubbed and treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Then air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go in, placed by the size of the room and the materials in it.

Storms followed by dry spells leave silt in sewer pipes. The next storm stirs it up and sends it toward a bend where it plugs.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

A denial is not always the last word. The owner can ask the insurer to explain the reason in writing and compare it with the policy language. The cleanup should still go ahead, because sewage is a health risk that grows with time.

• Ask the city about its claim process when the main may be blocked
• Ask the adjuster whether any item must be kept for inspection
• Keep a notebook with every name, date and claim number

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
