How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Edison

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

   Hoses carry the sewage to a proper disposal point. It never goes to a storm drain, a yard or a neighbor's property.

2. Map where the sewage went

   Thermal imaging picks out cool, wet areas behind drywall. The crew confirms each one with a meter before any cutting starts.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Wet drywall is cut out above the wet line, often well past the visible stain. The studs behind it stay and get cleaned.

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.

Ranch-style homes from these years have lots of floor area at drain level. One backup can reach several rooms.
