How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Norwood

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

   HEPA air scrubbers can run during tear-out and cleaning to catch particles in the air. Containment helps keep the work area separate from the rest of the house.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

When the blockage sits in the city main, some owners also ask the city about responsibility. That is separate from an insurance claim, and outcomes vary. Tell your insurer what the plumber found.

• Keep the crew's daily moisture logs in the claim folder
• Photograph the outdoor cleanout if it overflowed
• Ask about the backup limit and the deductible

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
