Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

A sewer line backup, an overflowing toilet, or a failed septic line is more than just a mess. It is a Category 3 water loss. That means the water is contaminated and unsafe for anyone in the home or business. In Chula Vista, older sewer mains and clay drain lines in our western neighborhoods can cause backups to happen often, especially after heavy rains.

SERVPRO of Chula Vista provides 24/7 sewage cleanup for homes and businesses across the South Bay and San Diego County. Our IICRC-certified technicians follow the S500 standard. We contain the area, safely remove contaminated materials, disinfect with EPA-approved products, and dry the space completely. Sewage often soaks into drywall, flooring, and subflooring. Our in-house construction crew can handle the demolition and rebuild needed to fully restore the area.

We are listed on most major insurance preferred vendor programs. Our bilingual English and Spanish team is here to walk you through every step of the claim.

If you have a sewage backup in your home or business, call SERVPRO of Chula Vista today. We will restore your property "Like it never even happened."

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.

What our
customers are saying

"The two techs who came to our home were punctual and professional. They assessed the concerned area and took care of it, the water from the conduit needed to be suctioned out using their equipment. One of the tech also took the time to cut part of the conduit so we can take it to Home Depot for proper sizing of the cap to prevent further problems in the future. After the job was completed I requested for the amount owed and the tech answered it was a courtesy from the company.   SERVPRO of Chula Vista not only is a great company but also helps out the community on a personal basis. I highly recommend SERVPRO of Chula Vista for their thrust worthy and professionalism."

"Had some water damage that affected my kitchen and dining room. SERVPRO of Chula Vista came in and dried everything up. They found the source and provided a plan. Always respond quickly. Excellent communication. Everyone I have worked with is friendly and professional. This is the second time I have worked with them, highly recommend."

"SERVPRO of Chula Vista was my lifesaver! There was construction being done at my house. The toilet had been removed. Over about 2 weeks, there was water flowing into the space between the toilet room and family room downstairs without my knowledge. The water eventually started to flow through the vent in the family room ceiling. I walked into a flooding family room. SERVPRO of Chula Vista came out within an hour, which was also on a weekend. The specialist was professional and kind during a very stressful experience. He showed me where the water was with his equipment and placed 2 machines to dry out the areas affected. He showed me how to use the machine and gave me instructions as to the next step. The company has been so efficient and professional, while maintaining such human compassion, that I will absolutely use them again and share this gem of a company with my friends and family. Thank you so much SERVPRO of Chula Vista!"

"Came home from work this last Friday evening ready to start my weekend when I unfortunately discovered a flood caused by a failed valve on the toilet. I called SERVPRO of Chula Vista based on other's recommendations I received. Within the hour, I was greeted by Julio who showed up to help us out. Julio was very kind and professional and despite it being Friday evening was eager to help. Due to a couple prior incidents of water damage our deductible is rather high so I was hoping for a fair price that I could pay for directly. Julio understood and worked with his team to make sure we were taken care of. I couldn't ask for a more pleasant experience in light of the stress that water damage can cause. Thank you to Julio and the SERVPRO of Chula Vista team for taking care of me and my family. We will definitely recommend to friends and family alike."

About Us

SERVPRO of Chula Vista was founded in 2006 by Martin Aguilera, who started the business out of his garage with the help of a few family members. In the early days, the company served just a small slice of Chula Vista but as word spread and the work kept coming, the team grew year after year. A second location followed, and the company became known throughout the South Bay as SERVPRO of Chula Vista.

In 2021, Martin's sons, Martin Jr. and Albert, took over day-to-day operations, carrying forward the same hands-on, family-run approach their father built the business on. Today, our team of 40 employees serves not only Chula Vista, but also La Jolla, Mira Mesa, Pacific Beach, Rancho Peñasquitos, Miramar, and Scripps Ranch — and we regularly assist on jobs across Southern California. When major catastrophes strike elsewhere in the country, our crews are also called up as part of SERVPRO's national Storm Team response.

We specialize in water damage, fire and smoke damage, mold remediation, biohazard cleanup, and full-service reconstruction for both residential and commercial properties. Our technicians are IICRC-certified, we are listed on multiple insurance preferred vendor programs, and we offer bilingual English and Spanish service so every customer in our diverse community gets clear communication from start to finish.

Above all, our mission has not changed since day one: serve the community, do the right thing, and treat every customer like family. We are proud to give back locally and to be the team San Diego County calls when something goes wrong.

If you need restoration service for your home or business, call us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
