Sewage Cleanup Means Flood Cuts

A flood cut is usually seen when there is outside water that has flooded a home. The removal of the first foot of drywall is to assure that there is no bacteria left in the home.

Cleaning Sewage Damage

Flood cuts are necessary when cleaning up sewage for the same reasons. Bacteria from the toilet gets soaked into the walls and should not just be dried in place. The sheetrock is removed, the area is disinfected, and dried before it can be restored. This home in Magna, UT, shows the finished cleanup and drying of the bathroom before the restoration started.
