Renters make up about 46% of households in Kingston. Tenants should tell the landlord right away, and the cleanup team can provide documentation for the lease and any claim. With roughly 41 inches of annual rainfall in Kingston, saturated ground and storm runoff add pressure to sewer pipes, a common cause of basement and crawl space backups.
The work often covers:
Residents, tenants and staff are moved out of the area while the crew sets up protective gear and containment.
Plastic barriers and air controls go up, and technicians suit up before they enter the sewage area.
Carpet, padding, drywall and insulation that soaked up sewage are cut out, bagged and hauled away as contaminated waste.
Remaining surfaces are washed and disinfected, and odor is removed at its source rather than covered up.

Usually not. Carpet and padding soak up Category 3 water and cannot be reliably made safe, so they are cut out and discarded. Hard surfaces, sealed wood and items in closed containers can often be cleaned and kept.
If sewage is still coming up, a plumber may need to stop the source. If sewage is already on the floor, a cleanup team can start containing it at once. Many property owners call both, and it does not matter much which is first. Sewer backup companies and plumbers often work one after the other on the same job.
Often only with an added endorsement. Many standard policies treat sewer or drain backup separately from sudden water damage. Call your insurer before cleanup begins, take photos and keep receipts, and ask what they need to see.
After the sewage and soaked materials are out, floors and walls are scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant used by label directions. Unsealed concrete can hold odor and needs extra attention. Crews often handle this step with professional equipment.
Common signs include a sewer smell in the yard or crawl space, soft or damp ground near the foundation, gurgling drains and slow drains in several fixtures at once. A plumber can confirm the leak. Once it is found, a cleanup team can take care of the contaminated soil, materials and odor.
Watch for a rotten-egg or sewer smell, wet spots or stains on floors and walls, unusually green grass over a pipe, and multiple drains backing up at the same time. If any of these show up, keep people away from the area and have the cause checked.
Raw sewage is a biohazard, so do not wait on cleanup.
