What Sewage in Basement Cleanup Includes in Normandy Beach

Wastewater on a basement floor can reach carpet pad, wallboard and stored belongings before it looks deep. Sewage is Category 3 water, so contaminated porous materials usually come out rather than being dried in place.

After the sewer stops backing up, contamination may still sit under flooring. Cleanup workers check the wet footprint while the plumber addresses the cause. Dark seams near the doorway can point to another affected room.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• 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.
