How Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in Maumelle
A sour smell after a backup is a clue that something is still wet or still contaminated. The odor does not leave until the source materials come out and the area is dry. Air fresheners only cover it up.
-
Extract the sewage
Speed matters in this step because every hour pushes more sewage into the floor. Crews in Maumelle pump first and seal off the work area so the spread stops.
-
Map where it traveled
Mapping decides what stays and what goes. Readings from an untouched room give the technician a dry goal to measure against.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Belongings get sorted by what they are made of. Hard, nonporous items can often be sanitized, while soft items that soaked up sewage are discarded after they are photographed.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Floors, slabs and framing are scrubbed and treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Then air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go in, placed by the size of the room and the materials in it.

What if sewage comes back after the Maumelle cleanup?
Call the plumber right away, since the blockage may not be fully cleared. Call the cleanup crew too so it can check what got wet again. Stop water use in the meantime.
