How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Linton

Dry-looking drywall can still hold water inside. Growth can start behind a wall where nobody sees it, and it is hard to catch early. A moisture meter and a thermal camera show what the eye misses.

  1. Extract the sewage

    Speed matters in this step because every hour pushes more sewage into the floor. Crews in Linton pump first and seal off the work area so the spread stops.

  2. Map where it traveled

    A moisture meter and a thermal camera show how far the sewage went. The technician marks wet spots on a floor plan and follows the water into walls, under cabinets and across the slab.

  3. Cut out what it soaked

    Belongings get sorted by what they are made of. Hard, nonporous items can often be sanitized, while soft items that soaked up sewage are discarded after they are photographed.

  4. Sanitize, dry and check

    Floors, slabs and framing are scrubbed and treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Then air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go in, placed by the size of the room and the materials in it.
