Our house main sewer drain clogged and I had to have it snaked out today.
Before that could happen we emptied seven 5-gal. buckets of sewage water out of the 4 in. main pipes in the basement. (possibly black water)
I carried them across the basement floor in that process, tracking as I went. I have a big mess to clean now.
It also turned out that one of the 2" cast iron pipes leaked at a joint and sprayed horribly over things on some shelves underneath.
I have to get busy cleaning, disinfecting with a pump sprayer and wondering if there's any professionals here to tell me if I need to increase the bleach percentage above the basic disinfecting level of 1/3 cup per gallon of water for this kind of cleanup.
