Heavy rain, grease, roots or a blocked main can push sewage back up the public sewer and into basements along the street. The cause is outside the house, but the sewage is inside it. Cleanup cannot wait for the street work.
Plumbers clear drains and fix pipes. They usually do not remove soaked carpet, cut out wet drywall or sanitize a floor. Ask what each trade covers before the work begins.

How City Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Wishon
-
Extract the sewage
Floor drains and sumps get checked before the pump-out ends. The technician makes sure nothing is still flowing back and passes the note along to the plumber.
-
Map where it traveled
A moisture meter and a thermal camera show how far the sewage went. The technician marks wet spots on a floor plan and follows the water into walls, under cabinets and across the slab.
-
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.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
HEPA air filtration runs during the work to catch airborne dust. After sanitizing, the crew sets the drying equipment and leaves it running.
