What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Household fans cannot make untreated sewage safe. The technician first removes contamination, then dries the building to reduce ongoing moisture risk.
- 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.

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Jbsa Ft Sam Houston was built in the 1980s. Layered bathroom floors can hold wastewater beyond a toilet area. Protective extraction follows the contamination path, not a construction date.
