How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Jeffersonville
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
Hoses carry the sewage to a proper disposal point. It never goes to a storm drain, a yard or a neighbor's property.
-
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
Baseboards, particleboard cabinets and padded furniture soaked in sewage usually cannot be saved. The crew lists each item for the claim before bagging it.
-
Sanitize, dry and verify
Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Census data lists 2,038 residents in the 1 ZIP code around Jeffersonville, and a home built in the 1960s is typical there. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often have cast iron stacks inside and clay or fiber sewer pipe outside. Fiber pipe was used into the 1970s and can deform or collapse.
Cold basements slow drying. The crew uses LGR dehumidifiers and heat to keep moisture readings moving down in winter. Tenants photograph their own wet belongings and tell the landlord in writing. The landlord's insurer and the renter's insurer each cover different things, depending on the policies.
