Why Choose SERVPRO^® for Sewage Cleanup?

The first question on a sewage backup is what stays and what goes, and the answer is less negotiable than people expect.

What comes out. Carpet and pad that took contaminated water. Drywall from the waterline down, typically with a margin above it. Insulation. Particleboard and laminate. Ductwork insulation if contamination reached the system. These are porous, they absorbed Category 3 water carrying bacteria and pathogens, and no drying or disinfecting process makes them safe again.

What can usually be saved. Structural framing, concrete, tile and properly sealed hard surfaces, and solid wood, provided they are cleaned, treated, and dried under proper containment.

What depends. Hardwood flooring, cabinetry, and subfloor come down to how long the water sat and how deep it penetrated.

SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa contains the affected area first so contamination does not spread through the structure or into the HVAC system, then removes and disposes of affected materials under applicable handling requirements. Remaining surfaces are cleaned, treated with antimicrobial products, dried, and verified before rebuilding begins.

Time drives all of it. Bacterial growth starts within hours and the removal list grows every day the material stays wet.

We document the full scope for your insurance carrier, including what was removed and why.

Steps in Our Sewage Damage Restoration Process

Sewage Removal & Contamination Control

Sewage backup emergencies carry viruses and bacteria that cause serious illnesses. Our SERVPRO professionals will address immediate hazards and stabilize the affected area. We clean up sewage spills and biohazards using specialized equipment and training, thoroughly and safely from start to finish.

Sanitization and Deodorization

Using our meticulous state-of-the-art protocols, our team of experts ensures that your home or building is safe and thoroughly clean. After sanitization, advanced equipment helps us find and eliminate any hidden moisture, so you know your structure is dry.

Restoration

In the last phase, SERVPRO repairs any structural damage and returns your property to its previous condition. Before the space is cleared for re-entry, we’ll conduct a final inspection to make sure the area is safe, clean, and ready for you to return.

Residential Sewage Cleanup

Sewage contamination in homes is often caused by toilet overflows, pipe backups, waste line leaks, or outside floodwater. Keep in mind that raw sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that can contaminate flooring, walls, air systems, and personal belongings.

With quick, professional, and discrete intervention from SERVPRO, you can avoid further damage, mold growth, lingering odors, and long-term health risks. And quickly return to a home that’s safe and livable again.

Commercial Sewage Cleanup

Sewage damage in commercial buildings can be disruptive. But with commercial sewage cleanup and biohazard restoration from SERVPRO, it doesn’t always require an extended shutdown. We act quickly to remove contaminated water, sanitize the space, and get your business back to safe operations.

We respond 24/7 with industrial-grade equipment and certified protocols. If possible, we will isolate problem areas so your operations can continue with minimal interruption.

From overflowing toilets to large-scale black water flooding, we’ve seen it all. We’re the team to make things right again.

About Us

In March 2026, the Wilson family acquired SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa, adding it to SERVPRO Team Wilson. The family entered the SERVPRO system in 1999, and Benji and Brady Wilson have served as Operating General Managers since 2007, growing the group across Alabama and Texas.

What did not change with the acquisition is the team. The technicians and project managers Tuscaloosa customers have worked with for years are the same people on the job today, now backed by the equipment, staffing, and large loss capacity of a multi location franchise group.

SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa understands the stress and worry that comes with a fire or water damage and the disruption it causes your life, home, or business. Our goal is to help minimize the interruption to your life and quickly make it "Like it never even happened."

SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa specializes in the cleanup and restoration of residential and commercial property after a fire, smoke, or water damage. SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa can also mitigate mold and mildew from your home or business.

Our staff is highly trained in property damage restoration. From initial and ongoing training at SERVPRO's corporate training facility to regular IICRC-industry certification, rest assured our staff is equipped with the knowledge to restore your property. Severe weather season in west Alabama produces events that hit entire neighborhoods at once, and Team Wilson crews from sister locations are available when a single franchise cannot cover the volume.

Backed by a nationwide system of qualified franchises, no damage is too large or too small for SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa. If you would like to schedule service for your home or business, please call today!

Serving you since 1967, SERVPRO is the cleaning and restoration brand you know and trust.
