If your basement floods from a sewer backup, avoid contact with the water—it may contain raw sewage and harmful bacteria. Turn off power to affected rooms before entering, and call a plumber to clear the blockage. Wear rubber boots and gloves if you must go in, and keep children and pets away until everything is sanitized.
