Sewage Backup Cleanup in Laurel, MD
Sewage and other contaminated water situations require added precautions because affected water may contain contaminants that should not be spread through clean areas.
Careful Cleanup After a Sewage Backup
Sewage backups and contaminated water require a more cautious response than a clean plumbing leak. People and pets should avoid the affected area, and porous materials that contacted contaminated water may need special handling.
Limit Exposure
Keep people and pets away from sewage-contaminated water and avoid tracking wet materials into clean areas.
Remove Contaminated Water
Bulk water removal should account for the source, affected surfaces and the potential for contamination.
Assess Porous Materials
Carpet pad, drywall, insulation and other porous materials may not be suitable for simple drying after sewage exposure.
Clean, Dry & Restore
After contaminated materials are addressed, remaining areas can be cleaned, dried and evaluated for restoration.
