How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Rio Grande

Drywall wicks sewage up the wall and stays damp inside. The longer it sits, the more likely mold becomes a problem behind the paint.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   Truck-mounted equipment handles big volumes, and portable extractors reach basements with tight stairs. The crew picks the tool that fits the house.

2. Map where the sewage went

   Ducts, vents and cabinets get checked along with the floor. Sewage and its smell can travel where the eye does not.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   The crew handles the loading and disposal of the bags. The homeowner does not carry sewage-soaked materials out alone.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Owners live in about 18% of the occupied homes in the ZIP codes around Rio Grande, so a backup often means a homeowner's claim file and a plumber's report. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Rio Grande was built in the 1970s. Ranch-style homes from these years have lots of floor area at drain level. One backup can reach several rooms.

Garages and unheated crawl spaces hold sewage that can freeze and thaw. A thaw can reveal a backup that happened during the cold. In apartment and condo buildings, sewage can travel through shared drains and walls from unit to unit. The crew checks the units around the source.
