Sewage in Basement Cleanup in Bush, KY

What Sewage in Basement Cleanup Includes in Bush

• Keep children and pets out of the contaminated basement.
• Avoid outlets, appliances and electrical cords that touch the water.
• Stop using plumbing fixtures until a plumber addresses the blockage.
• Photograph the water level and damaged property from a dry area.
• Leave soaked carpet, pad and wallboard for the cleanup crew to assess.
