How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Fitzgerald

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

   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.

2. 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.

3. Cut out what it soaked

   Belongings get sorted by what they are made of. Hard, nonporous items can often be sanitized, while soft items that soaked up sewage are discarded after they are photographed.

4. Sanitize, dry and check

   Rebuild work waits for the dry readings. Once the structure passes, the homeowner can get drywall, paint and flooring quoted with confidence.
