How Septic Overflow in Basement Cleanup Works in Belvidere

2. Map contamination and moisture

4. Dry the structure and verify

• Do not walk through water to shut off basement power.
• Stop using household drains until a septic company checks the system.
• Leave wet electrical and utility equipment untouched.
• Photograph the water level from a dry, safe position.
