What Septic Overflow in Basement Cleanup Includes in Rombauer

How Septic Overflow in Basement Cleanup Works in Rombauer

   The Rombauer assessor notes the drain or fixture where wastewater emerged. A septic company handles the source while interior work is planned.

• Stop running laundry, showers, toilets and sinks until the septic company addresses the cause.
• Do not enter standing sewage to unplug equipment or reach electrical controls.
• Describe the visible depth and any affected utility equipment from a safe position.
• Leave wet cartons and rugs in place for the crew to assess and document.
