How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Clifton

A fan pointed at sewage pushes germs through the air and does not make the room safe. Drying comes after the sewage and the soaked materials are out.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   The crew checks the electrical situation before powered equipment goes in. Wet outlets and cords stay off until a qualified person has looked at them.

2. Map where the sewage went

   The crew tests the crawl space or subfloor when sewage may have run beneath the finished floor. Insulation under a floor soaks it up like a sponge.

3. 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.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   A final walkthrough checks the cleaned surfaces and the readings. The crew hands over its photos, lists and logs for the insurance claim.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

The 1,152 homes in the 1 ZIP code around Clifton share sewer mains of many ages, and an older main can fail under a heavy load. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Clifton was built in the 1970s. Ranch-style homes from these years have lots of floor area at drain level. One backup can reach several rooms.

An occasional hard freeze can crack exposed drain pipe, and heavy rain in the same year can overload the sewer. Backups come from either one. With owners in most homes, neighbors often compare notes. If several homes have slow drains, the city sewer department should hear about it.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

When the blockage sits in the city main, some owners also ask the city about responsibility. That is separate from an insurance claim, and outcomes vary. Tell your insurer what the plumber found.

• Ask the insurer how it wants photos sent
• Read any claim release carefully before signing
• Write down who you spoke to and when

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
