How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Votaw

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Sewage adds bacteria on top of that, so speed matters twice.

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

   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

   Wet drywall is cut out above the wet line, often well past the visible stain. The studs behind it stay and get cleaned.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.
