How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Glidden
Carpet and pad hold sewage against the subfloor. Pulling them out early gives mold less to grow on and cuts the germs sitting in the house.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
