What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Sewage water can reach insulation that will not dry safely in place. Removing affected porous material gives the remaining structure a path to dry.
- Keep children, pets and visitors outside contaminated rooms.
- Stop using toilets, showers, sinks and laundry until a septic company evaluates the system.
- Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
- Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.
- Move clean belongings only when the route does not cross wastewater.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 4,724 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Proctorville was built in the 1980s. The crew checks whether sewage traveled under newer floating flooring. Porous surfaces need assessment when Category 3 water touches them.
A low drain can overflow in winter as in any season; the crew maps where wastewater traveled.

Can the family use another bathroom during the backup?
More water entering the system can push additional sewage into the house. Stop using plumbing fixtures until a septic company evaluates the cause.
