How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Holtville

Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that do not need days to cause trouble. Contact with skin, a cut or a hand-to-mouth moment can spread illness. That is why the crew wears gloves, boots, eye protection and a respirator.

1. Extract the sewage

   Speed matters in this step because every hour pushes more sewage into the floor. Crews in Holtville pump first and seal off the work area so the spread stops.

2. Map where it traveled

   Mapping decides what stays and what goes. Readings from an untouched room give the technician a dry goal to measure against.

3. Cut out what it soaked

   Belongings get sorted by what they are made of. Hard, nonporous items can often be sanitized, while soft items that soaked up sewage are discarded after they are photographed.

4. Sanitize, dry and check

   The job is done when the readings reach the goal, not when a surface feels dry. The final log goes into the file, and the equipment comes out.
