Sewage Backup in Teaneck Bathroom
When sewage backed up in this Teaneck bathroom, the homeowner made the right call and brought in SERVPRO for the cleanup. Water contaminated by sewage is a class three biohazard and anyone not wearing protective gear should avoid contact. SERVPRO technicians cleaned up the water and solid waste and got to work drying the bathroom. The After Photo gives a peek during the drying process, they drained the dehumidification equipment down the now-waste-free shower drain. The floor and the rest of the bathroom still show some residual staining from the sewage and will not have a final wipe down and disinfection until the room is dry. Fortunately, the tile flooring was unscathed besides needing cleaning and did not delaminate.
