How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Rembert
A sour smell after a backup is a clue that something is still wet or still contaminated. The odor does not leave until the source materials come out and the area is dry. Air fresheners only cover it up.
-
Extract the sewage
Extraction removes most of the contaminated water, but not all of it. What the pump leaves in carpet, pad and cracks is picked up with weighted extractors, and the rest is handled in later steps.
-
Map where it traveled
A moisture meter and a thermal camera show how far the sewage went. The technician marks wet spots on a floor plan and follows the water into walls, under cabinets and across the slab.
-
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.
