How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Pax
Cleaning the surface is not enough. Germs and moisture sit inside porous materials, so the crew removes those first and then sanitizes what stays. Drying to a measured goal is what keeps mold from getting a start.
-
Extract the sewage
Speed matters in this step because every hour pushes more sewage into the floor. Crews in Pax pump first and seal off the work area so the spread stops.
-
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.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Only what is wet or contaminated comes out, and the technician logs every item. That list is the record an adjuster sees later.
-
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.

Sewer Backup Cleanup Questions in Pax
How long does drying take in Pax after a sewer backup?
Once the sewage is out and the soaked materials are removed, drying usually takes about three to five days. Concrete or sewage that sat longer can add time. The crew's daily readings show when it is done.
Can heavy rain cause a sewage backup in Pax?
Yes. Storm water can overload sewers and push the flow back into low drains. Basements and floor drains are usually the first places it shows.
How do I know the sewage is really gone from my Pax house?
The moisture readings reach the dry goal, the sanitized surfaces are clean and the smell is gone. The crew's final log shows the numbers.
How do I stop a toilet from overflowing in Pax?
Lift the tank lid and push the flapper closed, or turn the valve behind the toilet so the tank cannot refill. Do not flush again, and call a crew.
Will the crew in Pax remove my furniture?
Hard, nonporous pieces may be sanitized. Upholstered or soft items that soaked up sewage are usually discarded after they are photographed. The technician explains each one.
