How Septic Overflow in Basement Cleanup Works in Unionville

1. Extract standing sewage water

   The crew contains the affected Unionville rooms and removes accessible wastewater with protective equipment.

2. Map contamination and moisture

   Moisture readings show whether a seemingly dry surface still hides wet backing.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

4. Dry the structure and verify

• Keep everyone upstairs and away from the contaminated stairway.
• Do not walk through water to shut off basement power.
• Stop using household drains until a septic company checks the system.
• Leave wet electrical and utility equipment untouched.
• Photograph the water level from a dry, safe position.
