How Main Sewer Line Backup Removal Works in Mina

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   The crew suits up in boots, gloves, a respirator and coveralls before anyone steps into the wet area. Submersible pumps and extractors start moving the standing sewage out.

2. Map where the sewage went

   The technician marks the wet line on every wall and notes what each room is made of. That map decides what comes out.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Hard items such as tile, metal and sealed wood are cleaned and kept when they can be. The crew sorts as it goes.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   LGR dehumidifiers and air movers go in, sized to the room. Wet framing and subfloor give up their moisture faster in a controlled space.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A musty smell after a backup points to hidden moisture. Call early, because that smell usually comes from material that needs to be cut out.

• Stop using every toilet, sink, tub and washer until the pipe is cleared
• Leave the yard cleanout alone, since the plumber opens it with the right tools
• Keep children and pets out of every room that has sewage
• Wear rubber boots and gloves if you must cross a wet floor
• Photograph each affected room, the drains and any cleanout that overflowed
