How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Longwood

A warm, humid week in Longwood speeds all of this up. A cold basement slows it, but wet materials still have to come out.

1. 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.

2. Map where the sewage went

   Photos go into the claim file before anything moves. The crew records each room, each drain and each damaged material.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Carpet and pad come up first, cut into manageable strips and double-bagged. They leave through a protected path, not across clean floors.

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.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Flood insurance and homeowners insurance cover different events. Sewage that comes up a drain is usually a backup claim and not a flood claim. Ask your insurer which one applies to your loss.

• Write down who you spoke to and when
• Ask the insurer how it wants photos sent

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