1. Remove the overflow

   The extraction crew takes liquid water off the floor after the area is safe. A technician notes whether the source suggests sewer contamination.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   Pinless readings can screen broad areas without opening every finish. The technician follows suspicious spots with closer material checks.

3. Handle affected materials

   Sewage-touched porous materials usually need removal. The crew documents the affected flooring or drywall and cleans remaining hard surfaces.

4. Dry and verify

   Dehumidification removes moisture from the room air while air movement supports evaporation. Daily checks shape the setup.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Water from a sewer line is Category 3, but that classification does not decide a claim. The cleanup team photographs affected materials and keeps drying records. Only the insurer applies the written policy to that loss. Water depth at discovery helps describe the original extent of the loss.

• Review any endorsement limit and deductible.
• Ask for the water category in the work notes.
• Note when fixture use was stopped.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
