A camera inspection shows the plumber what is wrong inside the pipe. A moisture meter shows the crew what is wrong inside the house. Each trade reads its own evidence.

How Main Sewer Line Backup Removal Works in Mission

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

   Ducts, vents and cabinets get checked along with the floor. Sewage and its smell can travel where the eye does not.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Hard items such as tile, metal and sealed wood are cleaned and kept when they can be. The crew sorts as it goes.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   LGR dehumidifiers and air movers go in, sized to the room. Wet framing and subfloor give up their moisture faster in a controlled space.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Closing the door on a wet basement does not stop mold. The crew pumps out the sewage, hauls away the soaked materials and dries the structure with LGR dehumidifiers.

• Stop using every toilet, sink, tub and washer until the pipe is cleared
• 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

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

A plumber's report that names the cause, such as roots, grease or a collapsed pipe, helps explain the loss. Keep it with the crew's records, because an insurer reads the two together.

• Ask about the backup limit and the deductible
• Report the loss to the insurer right away
• Tell your landlord or association in writing

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