How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Franklinton

Carpet and pad hold sewage against the subfloor. Pulling them out early gives mold less to grow on and cuts the germs sitting in the house.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   Truck-mounted equipment handles big volumes, and portable extractors reach basements with tight stairs. The crew picks the tool that fits the house.

2. Map where the sewage went

   Photos go into the claim file before anything moves. The crew records each room, each drain and each damaged material.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Hard items such as tile, metal and sealed wood are cleaned and kept when they can be. The crew sorts as it goes.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   Odor control follows the cleaning. A smell that lingers often means a wet spot remains, so the crew looks again instead of masking it.
