How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Lennox
Sewage carries bacteria and viruses that can make people sick. Skin contact, splashes and a drain that sprays as it flows are all ways it spreads.
-
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.
-
Map where the sewage went
Thermal imaging picks out cool, wet areas behind drywall. The crew confirms each one with a meter before any cutting starts.
-
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.
-
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.

Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often have cast iron stacks inside and clay or fiber sewer pipe outside. Fiber pipe was used into the 1970s and can deform or collapse.
Frost can heave pipe joints out of line. Even a small shift leaves a ledge that catches paper and grease. Owners can ask the plumber to write down the cause of the backup. That report helps explain the loss to the adjuster.
