How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Ucon
Daily moisture readings show when wood and concrete have dried enough. The crew does not call a room finished on feel alone.
-
Pump out the standing sewage
The crew suits up in boots, gloves, a respirator and coveralls before anyone steps into the wet area. Submersible pumps and extractors start moving the standing sewage out.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Sanitize, dry and verify
Odor control follows the cleaning. A smell that lingers often means a wet spot remains, so the crew looks again instead of masking it.
