How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Milligan

Humidity keeps climbing in a basement or crawl space after a backup. Once it passes about 60 percent, mold spores find the damp they need. Dehumidifiers pull that moisture back down while the readings are tracked.

  1. Extract the sewage

    Standing sewage is the first thing to go. The extraction specialist picks a pump for the depth and a wand tool for carpet and tight corners, and keeps going until the floor stops giving up liquid.

  2. Map where it traveled

    Baseboards, door casings and cabinet toe-kicks are checked first, since sewage wicks upward there. The numbers tell the crew how high the cut needs to go.

  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

    HEPA air filtration runs during the work to catch airborne dust. After sanitizing, the crew sets the drying equipment and leaves it running.
