How Septic Overflow Cleanup Works in Craigsville

After a Category 3 spill in Craigsville, contaminated porous material is removed as needed. The remaining sound structure is dried before new finishes conceal it.

1. Contain the contaminated area

   A Craigsville technician identifies the sewage path and limits movement through dry rooms. Protective gear and controlled access help the crew begin safely.

2. Extract the sewage water

   The Craigsville crew removes reachable liquid first so it stops soaking into porous finishes. Hidden wet layers are assessed next.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   After extraction in Craigsville, the crew addresses residue on retained surfaces. Grossly contaminated materials leave the work area.

4. Dry and record retained structure

   Material readings show whether a Craigsville floor assembly is drying. The technician keeps a record before new finishes are placed.
