What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- 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 2,461 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 South China was built in the 1970s. Older vinyl and newer overlay flooring may hide damp backing. Porous surfaces need assessment when Category 3 water touches them.
During sustained cold, keep fixtures unused after a backup and contact the septic company about the source.
