How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Piedmont
Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that do not need days to cause trouble. Contact with skin, a cut or a hand-to-mouth moment can spread illness. That is why the crew wears gloves, boots, eye protection and a respirator.
-
Extract the sewage
Speed matters in this step because every hour pushes more sewage into the floor. Crews in Piedmont pump first and seal off the work area so the spread stops.
-
Map where it traveled
Mapping decides what stays and what goes. Readings from an untouched room give the technician a dry goal to measure against.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Carpet, pad and insulation that soaked up sewage are taken out and bagged. Under the drying standard, these porous materials cannot be cleaned to a safe level.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Floors, slabs and framing are scrubbed and treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Then air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go in, placed by the size of the room and the materials in it.
