Sewage Cleanup and Extraction in Fair Play
Most sewage backups in Fair Play homes come up through the lowest drain in the house: a floor drain, a shower or a toilet on the bottom floor.
Sewage water extraction is available in Fair Play and nearby Greenfield and Ash Grove. The pros handle toilet overflows, floor drain backups and main line backups in homes and businesses.
What Sewage Water Extraction Covers in Fair Play
Black Water Extraction
Black water carries bacteria and viruses, so the pros extract it fully and treat every wet surface instead of just drying it.
Sewage Damage Sanitization
Floors, walls, cabinets and fixtures touched by sewage are cleaned with detergent first, then treated with a registered disinfectant.
Sewage Odor Removal
The smell comes from waste left in porous materials. Removing those materials and cleaning the hard surfaces does most of the work.
Emergency Sewage Pump Out
Pumping out large amounts of sewage quickly limits how far it soaks into walls, cabinets and the floor below.
Contaminated Drywall Removal
Drywall and insulation that sewage touched are cut out, usually a foot or more above the water line, and bagged for disposal.
How to Tell Sewage Is Backing Up
Stained or Wet Flooring Near Fixtures
Dark stains, lifting tile or soft flooring around a toilet or tub can mean a slow leak from the drain connection.
Gurgling Toilets and Drains
Toilets and drains that gurgle or bubble when water runs elsewhere point to a blockage pushing air back up the pipes.
Toilet Water Level Changes
A toilet bowl that rises, drops or bubbles by itself can mean pressure in the drain line from a partial blockage.
Sewage Smell Indoors
A rotten-egg or sewer smell inside the house can mean sewage is leaking under a floor or inside a wall.
How Sewage Water Extraction Works in Fair Play
Step 1: Sort Belongings
Items that sewage touched are sorted into those that can be cleaned, such as hard plastics, and those that must be thrown out.
Step 2: Extract the Sewage
Sewage and dirty water are extracted from every affected room, starting where it is deepest.
Step 3: Contaminated Drywall Removal
Wet drywall and insulation are removed so the wall cavities can be cleaned and disinfected.
Step 4: Dry and Deodorize
Drying equipment runs with air scrubbers until materials are dry and the air no longer smells of sewage.
Common Causes of Sewage Backups in Fair Play
Flushed Wipes and Debris
Wipes, paper towels and hygiene products do not break down like toilet paper and form clogs in the main line.
Grease Buildup
Cooking grease poured down drains hardens inside pipes, narrows them and leads to backups at the lowest fixture.
Heavy Storm Runoff
Storm water that gets into sewer lines through cracks or illegal connections can overwhelm them and cause backups.
Failed Backwater Valve
A backwater valve that sticks open or is missing lets sewage from the street line flow back into the home.

Access and Layout
Tight crawl spaces, finished floors and spaces under cabinets take longer to clean than an open concrete floor.
Does Insurance Cover Sewage Water Extraction?
Commercial policies vary on sewage backup coverage. Business owners should check with their agent about cleanup and lost business time.
