How it's done

What Garden Oaks drain backup looks like

1

Dispatch and Safety Check

Technicians arriving in Garden Oaks first identify the source and contamination level of the backup. This determines the safety protocols, as a toilet overflow requires different handling than a washing machine drain issue.

2

Water and Debris Removal

The crew uses pumps and extractors to remove all standing water from the home. Any solid waste or debris from the backed-up drain is also safely removed from the affected rooms.

3

Sanitizing and Drying

All affected hard surfaces are cleaned and sanitized. Soaked porous materials like carpet padding are removed. Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the area, with moisture checks confirming it's dry.
