Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup in Lexington, KY

Sewage and black-water losses are contained, the materials the water touched are removed and disposed of, hard surfaces are disinfected, and the space is dried to a reading. The affected area is sealed off from the rest of the house. Porous materials the water reached come out and are bagged, with drywall cut to a margin above the visible line; hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. The space is then dried and read, and the containment comes down only when cleaning and drying are both finished.

Frequently asked questions

Why would a warehouse matter to a nearby house?

Because of what it sheds and what it holds. These are very large roofs on sites with modest drainage, so a heavy May sends a great deal of water off them, and the ground downhill takes it whether or not anything was designed for that.

What happens if one fails structurally?

It is not an ordinary water event. A warehouse holds an enormous volume of liquid at height, and a collapse releases that into the ground and any watercourse nearby, which brings in the state rather than just a contractor. It is one of the few situations where a neighboring property's problem becomes a regulatory matter.

Is the site drainage anyone's to check?

The operator's, and it is worth raising with them directly rather than with the county. A documented pattern of runoff crossing onto a property tends to get a response, since these operators are sensitive to environmental complaints. Photographs with dates carry the argument far better than a description of a wet yard does.
