24/7 Emergency
Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup in Kannapolis, NC
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
What is the void under the bath?
A box-out formed in the slab when it was poured so the drain could be connected from below. Once the plumbing was in, most of them were simply covered over rather than filled, so there is a hollow in the concrete under the tub with the connection inside it.
Why does a void under the tub matter?
Because it collects. A drain that weeps puts water into a closed hollow rather than onto a floor where it would be seen, and it stays there with no ventilation. By the time anything appears in the room, the void has been holding water for a long time.
How is the box-out reached?
By taking the tub out, which is most of the work. There is no access to a box-out from anywhere else, and the readings on the floor around it are unhelpful because the water is below the slab surface rather than in it. The bathroom comes apart to see it.
