A crew arrives in Alum Rock at any hour to contain the affected part of the home. Technicians use personal protective equipment before starting extraction of the contaminated water to limit exposure and cross-contamination.
Technicians pump out the sewage water using equipment kept separate for this work. They then remove and properly dispose of porous materials like carpet and pad that absorbed the contaminated water.

Sewage backup cleanup in Alum Rock typically runs from about $1,500 to $6,000, depending on how much of the home was affected, how long the backup sat before it was discovered, and how much porous material has to be removed and disposed of.

Sewer backups are often covered under a homeowner policy's sewer or water backup endorsement, and the work is documented for the claim.
