Raw Sewage Remediation in Pomona, CA

Raw Sewage Remediation

Category Three Contamination

Raw sewage is grossly contaminated Category three water carrying bacteria, viruses, protozoa, parasites and endotoxins, including E. coli, Salmonella, Hepatitis A, Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Anything porous it touches is unsalvageable, and the affected area must be treated as contaminated until testing proves otherwise. Contamination also spreads well beyond the visible water line, wicking up drywall, tracking under flooring and aerosolizing into the air of adjacent rooms, which is why the remediation footprint is almost always larger than the wet footprint. There is no shortcut version of this work that is safe.

Raw Sewage Remediation

Removal and Decontamination Sequence

Under full containment and negative air, we remove and dispose of all contaminated porous materials, typically carpet and pad, drywall to a defined height above the water line, insulation, particleboard and MDF cabinetry, affected subfloor and contents. Semi-porous and non-porous surfaces including framing, concrete, tile and metal are cleaned through gross removal, detailed cleaning with appropriate agents and mechanical action, and then treated with an EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant at the required concentration and dwell time. Structural drying follows, monitored daily to dry standard.

Raw Sewage Remediation

Testing, Deodorization and Rebuild

Before reconstruction we deodorize the affected space to remove residual sewage odor from framing and subfloor, and verify decontamination by inspection and bacterial sampling where the protocol calls for it. Reconstruction returns the space to pre-loss condition. You receive the complete file: protocol, materials removed, disinfection records, drying documentation, verification results and disposal manifests, all formatted to support the insurance claim.

Non-Destructive Detection and Inspection
Pomona, CA
Before a single piece of drywall comes out, we build a complete picture of what the damage actually is and how far it has traveled. Restotech uses non-invasive diagnostic equipment to read moisture, temperature and air quality behind finished surfaces, so the scope of work is driven by evidence instead of guesswork. This matters most in occupied homes, tenant-occupied units and commercial spaces where unnecessary demolition means lost time, lost revenue and a larger insurance claim than the loss actually warrants.

Thermal Infrared Camera and Borescope Inspection
Pomona, CA
Thermal imaging reads surface temperature differentials across walls, ceilings and floors. Because evaporating moisture cools a surface, water that has migrated inside an assembly shows up as a distinct thermal pattern long before it becomes a visible stain. Borescope inspection complements this by putting a camera directly inside a wall cavity, soffit, chase or subfloor void through a small access port, giving us a live view of framing, insulation and the back side of finishes without opening the assembly.

Moisture Mapping
Pomona, CA
Moisture mapping converts a water loss into measurable data. We record moisture content readings at fixed, repeatable points across every affected material, plot them against a dry standard established from unaffected material of the same type in the same structure, and draw the true boundary of the wet area. Water migrates by capillary action along framing, under flooring and through insulation, so the visible wet spot is almost never the real perimeter.

Microbial Identification and Assessment
Pomona, CA
Not every dark stain is mold, and not every mold problem is visible. Microbial assessment establishes whether microbial growth is present, what type it is, how much of the structure it affects and what conditions are sustaining it. Restotech performs the field assessment and coordinates laboratory analysis so the remediation scope is built on findings, not on assumptions, and so you are not paying to remove something that does not require removal.

Subcontracted Specialty Services: Lead and Asbestos
Pomona, CA
Buildings constructed before 1978 frequently contain lead-based paint, and asbestos was used in drywall joint compound, floor tile and mastic, popcorn ceilings, pipe and duct insulation, roofing and stucco well into the 1980s. Disturbing these materials during a restoration is a regulated activity with real legal and health consequences. Restotech identifies the risk at the inspection stage and brings in licensed specialty contractors before any demolition begins.

Mold, Fungi, Bacteria, Smoke and VOC Testing
Pomona, CA
Indoor air quality complaints rarely have a single cause. A property may carry fungal growth in a wall cavity, bacterial contamination from a sewage backup, residual smoke particulate from a fire, and elevated volatile organic compounds from building materials or cleaning products at the same time. Restotech evaluates the full range of contaminants together, so you are not solving one problem while the actual source of the complaint goes untouched.
