How Septic Overflow Cleanup Works in Goochland

A wall cavity may retain water even when the face looks dry. The Goochland cleanup assessment identifies access needs before drying begins.

2. Extract the sewage water

   Sewage can sit beneath fixtures and cabinets in Goochland. The technician checks those spaces as water is recovered.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   After extraction in Goochland, the crew addresses residue on retained surfaces. Grossly contaminated materials leave the work area.

4. Dry and record retained structure
