How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Moundville
Wet carpet pad and drywall act like sponges. They hold contaminated water against the floor and the studs long after the puddle is gone. Removing them early keeps germs and mold from settling in.
-
Extract the sewage
Standing sewage is the first thing to go. The extraction specialist picks a pump for the depth and a wand tool for carpet and tight corners, and keeps going until the floor stops giving up liquid.
-
Map where it traveled
Sewage rarely stays where it came in. The crew checks the base of every wall near the affected rooms and records the readings for the job file.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Only what is wet or contaminated comes out, and the technician logs every item. That list is the record an adjuster sees later.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Daily visits bring a moisture meter and a notebook. Readings are compared with the dry goal, and equipment is moved or added when a number stalls.
