How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Burnsville

Mold needs moisture, something to feed on and a little time. A sewage backup supplies all three in one afternoon. Call Sewer Backup Cleanup Team now, and a crew can start taking them away.

  1. Extract the sewage

    The crew starts with the water. Submersible pumps and truck-mounted extraction pull sewage off the floor and out of the house, and the hose runs to a safe disposal point.

  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

    The job is done when the readings reach the goal, not when a surface feels dry. The final log goes into the file, and the equipment comes out.
