How Septic Backup in Shower Cleanup Works in Scammon Bay

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

   The crew records temperature, humidity and material condition through the dry-out.
