Sewer backups can be a nightmare for any homeowner or property manager. Not only do they cause inconvenience, but they can also lead to significant damage and health hazards if not handled promptly and properly. Here at North Hill Sewer & Drain, we understand the urgency and stress that comes with a sewer backup issue, and we’re here to help.

First and foremost, if you’re experiencing a sewer backup on your Sumner property, it’s crucial to stay calm and act quickly. Contact our team of experienced technicians immediately. We have the expertise and equipment to assess the situation and take appropriate action to resolve the issue promptly.

While you wait for our team to arrive, there are a few steps you can take to minimize damage and ensure your safety:

1. Turn off the water supply: If the backup is caused by a clog or blockage, shutting off the water supply can help prevent further overflow.

2. Avoid using water: Refrain from flushing toilets, running sinks, or using any appliances that rely on water until the issue is resolved. Continued water usage can exacerbate the backup and cause more damage.

3. Protect yourself: Sewage backups can contain harmful bacteria and pathogens, so it’s essential to avoid direct contact with the contaminated water. Wear protective gear such as gloves and boots if you need to navigate the affected area.

4. Ventilate the area: Open windows and doors to allow fresh air to circulate and help mitigate any foul odors associated with the backup.

Once our technicians arrive, we’ll assess the situation, locate the source of the backup, and implement the most effective solution to restore your sewer system to proper working order. Whether it’s clearing a clog, repairing damaged pipes, or performing thorough cleanup and sanitization, you can trust us to handle the job with professionalism and efficiency.
