How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Presque Isle
Carpet and pad hold sewage against the subfloor. Pulling them out early gives mold less to grow on and cuts the germs sitting in the house.
-
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

Cut out and haul away what soaked

Sanitize, dry and verify
