Map where the sewage went
Photos go into the claim file before anything moves. The crew records each room, each drain and each damaged material.

Cut out and haul away what soaked
Baseboards, particleboard cabinets and padded furniture soaked in sewage usually cannot be saved. The crew lists each item for the claim before bagging it.
