How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Terryville

Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that can make people sick. Skin contact, splashes and a drain that sprays as it flows are all ways it spreads.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   The crew checks the electrical situation before powered equipment goes in. Wet outlets and cords stay off until a qualified person has looked at them.

2. Map where the sewage went

   A moisture meter shows how far the sewage wicked into walls and subfloors. The reading often reaches past what the eye can see.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Wet drywall is cut out above the wet line, often well past the visible stain. The studs behind it stay and get cleaned.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.
