Sewage Water Extraction Work in Dunean
Sewage Backup Cleanup
The pros wear protective gear, contain the area so sewage is not tracked through the house, and clear the water and waste from every room it reached.
Emergency Sewage Pump Out
Deep sewage water is removed first with trash pumps that can handle solids, so extractors can reach the floor.
Contaminated Drywall Removal
Drywall and insulation that sewage touched are cut out, usually a foot or more above the water line, and bagged for disposal.
Flooded Basement Cleanup
Basement cleanup includes the floor drain area, the laundry and mechanical spaces, and storage items that sat in the water.
Sewage Damage Sanitization
Studs and the slab or subfloor exposed by demolition are treated before drying so bacteria are not sealed into the wall.

Water Around the Basement Floor Drain
Dark water pooling around a basement floor drain after heavy rain or laundry use is often the first sign of a sewage backup.
