Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup in Zanesville, OH

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 a navigation pool?

A stretch of river held at a working depth by a dam downstream, so that boats can use it. The water is kept at a set level rather than rising and falling naturally, which makes the river beside these neighborhoods a managed thing.

Does that help or hurt the houses alongside?

Both, in different conditions, which is why it is worth understanding. The level is steady rather than dropping away in summer, so the ground water alongside it stays high all year. It also means there is less depth available before a storm has anywhere to go.

Why does the level change without rain?

Because it is operated. The dam is worked for navigation and for flow management, so the pool can be drawn down or held up on a schedule set well away from here. A basement that responds to that is responding to a decision, not the sky.
