How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Wheaton

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

   Photos go with the map. Dated pictures of the source, the water line and the damaged belongings give an insurer a clear starting record.

3. Cut out what it soaked

   Hauling contaminated materials out takes planning. The crew keeps bags sealed and moves them along a protected path, so nothing drips across clean floors.

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.
