How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Lyerly
A sour smell after a backup is a clue that something is still wet or still contaminated. The odor does not leave until the source materials come out and the area is dry. Air fresheners only cover it up.
-
Extract the sewage
Floor drains and sumps get checked before the pump-out ends. The technician makes sure nothing is still flowing back and passes the note along to the plumber.
-
Map where it traveled
Hidden moisture shows on the thermal camera as cooler patches. The technician confirms each one with a meter before marking a wall for removal, so only wet material gets cut.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Drywall is cut above the water line, usually a little higher to catch wicking. The crew removes the wet section, bags it and leaves clean framing exposed to dry.
-
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.
