Our Process

How Old Greenwood Water Restoration Handles Sewage Cleanup

Every job follows the same three-step process. Transparent, thorough, and done right the first time.

1

First Antimicrobial Treatment

Industry standard antimicrobial products applied to all affected surfaces with proper dwell time. Application covers walls, floors, framing where exposed, and adjacent surfaces. Photos document application areas and timing.

2

Containment Setup Before Disturbance

Plastic containment barriers established around the affected zone before any disturbance creates aerosolized contamination. Decontamination zone staged for crew entry and exit with proper gear protocols.

3

Second Antimicrobial Treatment and Drying Setup

After demolition exposes framing and previously hidden surfaces, second antimicrobial treatment covers newly exposed materials. Drying equipment placed and sized appropriately. Containment maintained throughout the drying period.

4

Demolition of Unsalvageable Materials

Drywall removed to a defensible height above the flood line. Carpet and padding in the affected zone removed and bagged. Lower wall insulation pulled. Baseboards and untreated wood removed. Stored porous items in the wet zone evaluated and removed if unsalvageable.

Emergency calls are answered immediately. If we are on another job we call back within 15 minutes. Old Greenwood Water Restoration typically dispatches a crew within 2 hours for Old Greenwood, IN sewage emergencies. The crew lets you know on the call what to expect for arrival timing. A crew arrives with protective gear, containment materials, antimicrobial treatment products, and water extraction equipment for Category 3 work.
On approved claims with adequate coverage, your out of pocket is typically just the deductible. The total project cost varies but is documented for your insurance carrier. Coverage depends on having a sewer backup endorsement on your policy, which Old Greenwood Water Restoration can verify during the free inspection.
