How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Hookerton

Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that can make people sick. Skin contact, splashes and a drain that sprays as it flows are all ways it spreads.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   Plastic sheeting and sealed paths protect the dry rooms. Foot traffic through clean areas stays to a minimum.

2. 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.

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

   Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
