How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Washington

Closing the door on a wet basement does not stop mold. The crew pumps out the sewage, hauls away the soaked materials and dries the structure with LGR dehumidifiers.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   The crew checks the electrical situation before powered equipment goes in. Wet outlets and cords stay off until a qualified person has looked at them.

2. Map where the sewage went

   Ducts, vents and cabinets get checked along with the floor. Sewage and its smell can travel where the eye does not.

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

   Odor control follows the cleaning. A smell that lingers often means a wet spot remains, so the crew looks again instead of masking it.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Owners live in about 97% of the occupied homes in the ZIP codes around Washington, so a backup often means a homeowner's claim file and a plumber's report. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Washington was built in the 1970s. Slab and crawl space homes of the period run drain pipe under the floor. A break there can send sewage into the subfloor and insulation.

Frozen ground holds snowmelt on top, and the extra water flows into storm and sewer systems. A main that fills can back up through basement drains. With owners in most homes, neighbors often compare notes. If several homes have slow drains, the city sewer department should hear about it.
