How Sewage Backup Flood Water Removal Works in Laton

1. Remove the standing water

   A crew starts with the visible pool, using equipment suited to its depth.

   The crew traces saturation through carpet, pad and underlying layers.

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.
