Sewage Water Extraction Work in Rutledge
Contaminated Flooring Removal
Once contaminated flooring is out, the subfloor or slab is scrubbed, treated and dried before new flooring is installed.
Emergency Sewage Pump Out
Deep sewage water is removed first with trash pumps that can handle solids, so extractors can reach the floor.
Sewage Odor Removal
The smell comes from waste left in porous materials. Removing those materials and cleaning the hard surfaces does most of the work.
Contaminated Drywall Removal
Drywall and insulation that sewage touched are cut out, usually a foot or more above the water line, and bagged for disposal.

The pros wear protective gear, contain the area so sewage is not tracked through the house, and clear the water and waste from every room it reached.

Water in the Yard Cleanout
Water standing in or overflowing from the sewer cleanout pipe outside means the sewer pipe is blocked past that point.
Sewage Smell Indoors
A rotten-egg or sewer smell inside the house can mean sewage is leaking under a floor or inside a wall.
Wet Drywall Near Bathrooms
Damp, stained or soft drywall next to a bathroom or laundry can mean a leaking drain inside the wall.
