How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Pfafftown
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.
-
Extract the sewage
The crew starts with the water. Submersible pumps and truck-mounted extraction pull sewage off the floor and out of the house, and the hose runs to a safe disposal point.
-
Map where it traveled
Photos go with the map. Dated pictures of the source, the water line and the damaged belongings give an insurer a clear starting record.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Carpet, pad and insulation that soaked up sewage are taken out and bagged. Under the drying standard, these porous materials cannot be cleaned to a safe level.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
HEPA air filtration runs during the work to catch airborne dust. After sanitizing, the crew sets the drying equipment and leaves it running.
