How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Carolina
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.
-
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.
-
Map where the sewage went
Photos go into the claim file before anything moves. The crew records each room, each drain and each damaged material.
-
Cut out and haul away what soaked
Insulation that touched sewage cannot be dried and reused. It goes into heavy bags and out of the house.
-
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.
