How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Pine Apple
Drywall wicks sewage up the wall and stays damp inside. The longer it sits, the more likely mold becomes a problem behind the paint.
-
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.
-
Map where the sewage went
Thermal imaging picks out cool, wet areas behind drywall. The crew confirms each one with a meter before any cutting starts.
-
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.
-
Sanitize, dry and verify
HEPA air scrubbers can run during tear-out and cleaning to catch particles in the air. Containment helps keep the work area separate from the rest of the house.
