Detailed Black Water Extraction (Category 3) Methods for Palm Springs
Black Water Drying
Drying comes last in black water work. Drying before contaminated materials are removed would leave contamination in place.
Sewage Backup Water Extraction
Sewage backups need extraction because the water carries bacteria and spreads contamination into flooring and walls the longer it sits.
Septic Tank Backup Cleanup
Septic backups often come up through the lowest drains. Those rooms are contained, cleaned and dried, and the septic issue is noted for a septic contractor.
Toilet Overflow Water Removal
Rugs, bath mats and carpet soaked by toilet overflow are usually discarded. Tile and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected.
Sewage Damage Report for Insurance
Photos, moisture readings, a list of removed materials and drying logs are compiled into a report for your insurance claim.
