Cast iron drain failures causing sewage backups
Why it happens here
Most homes in Bunche Park were built in the 1950s with cast iron drains. After 70 years, these drains crack, corrode, and root-intrude. When they fail, sewage backs up into the home. This is a category 3 water loss, which is a health hazard.
Our approach
We inspect the drain lines with an inspection camera to find the break. Then we work with a licensed plumber to fix it. We handle the sewage cleanup with full PPE, remove contaminated materials, and disinfect with antimicrobial solution. We also check for moisture in the subflooring.
