What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Closed cabinets trap damp air after a backup. The technician checks their bases and the floor below instead of judging the room by odor.
- Keep the bathroom closed to children and pets.
- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.
- Take photos from a dry doorway if the view is safe.
