How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Stockertown

Drywall wicks sewage up the wall and stays damp inside. The longer it sits, the more likely mold becomes a problem behind the paint.

1. Pump out the standing sewage

   Truck-mounted equipment handles big volumes, and portable extractors reach basements with tight stairs. The crew picks the tool that fits the house.

2. 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.

3. Cut out and haul away what soaked

   Insulation that touched sewage cannot be dried and reused. It goes into heavy bags and out of the house.

4. Sanitize, dry and verify

   HEPA air scrubbers can run during tear-out and cleaning to catch particles in the air. Containment helps keep the work area separate from the rest of the house.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

About 70% of homes here predate 1960 and 9% date from 2000 on, so the crew sees old clay pipe and new plastic pipe in the same area. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Stockertown was built in the 1940s. Old houses sometimes have a patched run or more than one sewer pipe. A plumber's camera shows which parts are still in service.

Winter calls mean boots, gloves and extra layers. The crew plans around ice, snow and short daylight at the property. With owners in most homes, neighbors often compare notes. If several homes have slow drains, the city sewer department should hear about it.

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.

• Keep the plumber's written findings
• Write down who you spoke to and when
• Tell your landlord or association in writing

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