How Sewage in Basement Cleanup Works in Kittredge

1. Remove standing sewage

   Workers start with the visible pool and then check nearby low spots.

2. Find the wet perimeter

   A room-by-room check catches water beyond the first puddle.

3. Remove and clean

   Wallboard touched by sewage may be opened at the wet edge.

4. Dry and verify

   Dehumidifiers reduce damp air while clean framing dries.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A wet carpet pad traps water beneath the visible floor. Removing the affected pad lets the crew reach and dry the underlying material. The exposed floor can then be washed and monitored without contaminated padding blocking access.

• 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.
