Category 3 sewer water requires sanitation before normal drying. The restoration team removes touched porous material and checks remaining surfaces for moisture. Category identification controls whether porous material can remain in place.

   When the plumber stops additional backup, the crew extracts the existing spill. Category 3 water receives protective handling from the start.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   A technician evaluates whether trim, underlayment or insulation holds water. Necessary access helps the exposed structure dry.

4. Dry and verify
