Sewage Backup from a Storm in Fish Hawk

The low water table on the West Coast of Florida means that septic tank and sewage backups often occur after flooding. This Black Water on the tile flooring in this Fish Hawk office needs to be removed carefully to avoid health risks to the SERVPRO workers and employees during the storm damage removal service. The contaminated water wicked into the lower area of the sheetrock. The only option is a precise tear-out of the non-salvageable material. In the After Photo, the daisy-chained centrifugal air movers work with dehumidifiers to remove the remaining moisture. We can check with moisture meters to ensure a restoration has been completed. We disinfect the affected areas with an antimicrobial agent and document the work for our client.
