How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Foster

A musty smell after a backup points to hidden moisture. Call early, because that smell usually comes from material that needs to be cut out.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   Truck-mounted equipment handles big volumes, and portable extractors reach basements with tight stairs. The crew picks the tool that fits the house.

2. Map where the sewage went

   A moisture meter shows how far the sewage wicked into walls and subfloors. The reading often reaches past what the eye can see.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   The crew handles the loading and disposal of the bags. The homeowner does not carry sewage-soaked materials out alone.

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.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Flood insurance and homeowners insurance cover different events. Sewage that comes up a drain is usually a backup claim and not a flood claim. Ask your insurer which one applies to your loss.

• Write down who you spoke to and when
• Save every receipt for hotels, supplies and removal
• Tell your landlord or association in writing

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