How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Spalding

A sour smell after a backup is a clue that something is still wet or still contaminated. The odor does not leave until the source materials come out and the area is dry. Air fresheners only cover it up.

1. Extract the sewage

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

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

   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.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Housing near Spalding spans 402 homes in 1 ZIP code, and close to 73% of them predate 1980. Roots, grease and aging pipe all play a part in local backups. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Spalding was built in the 1950s. Older neighborhoods around Spalding may sit on sewer pipe laid generations ago. A lateral that old can crack, sag or separate. Sewage then collects in the low spot and plugs the pipe.

Power outages during winter storms can stop sewage ejector pumps and sump pumps. A basement bathroom that relies on a pump can back up when the lights go out. In a mostly owner-occupied area, the homeowner usually makes every call: crew, plumber and insurer. Keeping the crew's records and the plumber's report together makes the claim easier.
