How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Crestwood
A musty smell after a backup points to hidden moisture. Call early, because that smell usually comes from material that needs to be cut out.
-
Pump out the standing sewage
Hoses carry the sewage to a proper disposal point. It never goes to a storm drain, a yard or a neighbor's property.
-
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.
-
Cut out and haul away what soaked
Hard items such as tile, metal and sealed wood are cleaned and kept when they can be. The crew sorts as it goes.
-
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
About 16% of homes in the ZIP codes around Crestwood date from before 1960, when clay and cast iron sewer pipe were common. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Crestwood was built in the 1970s. Many homes of this age have had their sewer pipe patched once or twice. The patch is often where the next backup begins.
Roof vents can frost over in hard winters. A frosted vent makes drains slow and gurgle, and a plumber checks it. Most homes here are owner-occupied, so the owner usually makes the calls to the plumber, the crew and the insurer. Keeping every report in one folder makes the claim easier.
