What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- 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.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 49% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Spur was built in the 1960s. A mid-century Spur home may have several floor finishes over one subfloor. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.
An occasional freeze can complicate septic system access in Spur; the indoor cleanup remains a separate job.
