How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Grovetown
Mold needs moisture, something to feed on and a little time. A sewage backup supplies all three in one afternoon. Call Sewer Backup Cleanup Team now, and a crew can start taking them away.
-
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
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.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Cabinet bases, particleboard and soaked trim often go too. These materials swell and hold contamination, and the technician explains each choice.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Daily visits bring a moisture meter and a notebook. Readings are compared with the dry goal, and equipment is moved or added when a number stalls.
