Once the plumber finds the blockage, ask whether it sits on the house side or out in the street. The crew's work is the same either way, but the answer matters for who pays and who to notify. Call Sewer Backup Cleanup Team now to start the part that cannot wait.

How City Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Malad City
-
Extract the sewage
Extraction removes most of the contaminated water, but not all of it. What the pump leaves in carpet, pad and cracks is picked up with weighted extractors, and the rest is handled in later steps.
-
Map where it traveled
Sewage rarely stays where it came in. The crew checks the base of every wall near the affected rooms and records the readings for the job file.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Hauling contaminated materials out takes planning. The crew keeps bags sealed and moves them along a protected path, so nothing drips across clean floors.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Daily visits bring a moisture meter and a notebook. Readings are compared with the dry goal, and equipment is moved or added when a number stalls.

- Stop using water in the house until the main is cleared.
