How Septic Backup in House Cleanup Works in Ohkay Owingeh

1. Extract standing sewage water

   Standing sewage is removed from the home before cleaning and structural drying begin.

2. Map contamination and moisture

   A room diagram can mark contaminated surfaces and the moisture boundary for the job record.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Contaminated carpet padding or insulation often comes out before the structure is dried.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Equipment placement changes when moisture progress slows or hidden layers need access.

• Stop using toilets, showers, sinks and laundry until a septic company evaluates the system.
• Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
• Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.
