How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Appleton

A fan pointed at sewage pushes germs through the air and does not make the room safe. Drying comes after the sewage and the soaked materials are out.

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

   The crew tests the crawl space or subfloor when sewage may have run beneath the finished floor. Insulation under a floor soaks it up like a sponge.

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

   A final walkthrough checks the cleaned surfaces and the readings. The crew hands over its photos, lists and logs for the insurance claim.
