Does a Startex backup need a septic company?
Yes. A septic company assesses pumping and system work. The interior crew handles Category 3 water inside the Startex home.

No. The Startex crew follows visible travel, material contact and moisture readings. Odor alone does not show every affected layer.
Can pets enter the room after the puddle disappears?

What if wastewater reaches electrical outlets in Startex?
Stay out of the wet area and have an electrician assess unsafe power conditions. The cleanup crew begins when access is safe.
