- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.
- Take photos from a dry doorway if the view is safe.

Older Sagamore houses can have layers of flooring that conceal sewage beneath a recent finish. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.
