How Main Sewer Line Backup Removal Works in Roby
-
Pump out the standing sewage

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.
-
Cut out and haul away what soaked
The crew handles the loading and disposal of the bags. The homeowner does not carry sewage-soaked materials out alone.

Sanitize, dry and verify

- Leave the yard cleanout alone, since the plumber opens it with the right tools
- Keep children and pets out of every room that has sewage
- Wear rubber boots and gloves if you must cross a wet floor
- Photograph each affected room, the drains and any cleanout that overflowed
