How Sewage Backup Flood Cleanup Works in Rush
-
Remove standing water

Remove soaked material

-
Dry and verify
Further readings show whether the drying setup is working. A stable downward trend shows drying progress.

- Keep people and pets out of the affected area.
- Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
