How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Ermine

Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that can make people sick. Skin contact, splashes and a drain that sprays as it flows are all ways it spreads.

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

   Ducts, vents and cabinets get checked along with the floor. Sewage and its smell can travel where the eye does not.

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

   Odor control follows the cleaning. A smell that lingers often means a wet spot remains, so the crew looks again instead of masking it.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Roughly 5% of homes in these ZIP codes were built in 2000 or later, and most of those have plastic drain pipe. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Ermine was built in the 1970s. Many homes of this age have had their sewer pipe patched once or twice. The patch is often where the next backup begins.

Leaves and debris wash into storm drains in autumn storms, and a flooded street can strain the sewer main. Homes at the low end of a street feel it first. Lower-floor units take the backflow when a stack or a main blocks. Residents of upper floors should hold off on flushing until the building is cleared.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Photos taken before removal carry weight with an adjuster. The crew photographs the sewage, the drain and each material that gets hauled away, and the homeowner keeps copies.

• Report the loss to the insurer right away
• Tell your landlord or association in writing
• Ask the adjuster which items it wants to see first

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