Services We Provide
What To Do When Sewage Damage Happens
A sewage emergency is both unexpected and overwhelming.
Planning for a sewage emergency is probably the last thing on any homeowner’s mind. However, sewage damage can happen to anyone, in any home, at any time.
Knowing what to do in those first few moments can help protect your home and health. Here are some recommended steps from SERVPRO.
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.
Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly — we address sewage issues swiftly to control costs, prevent further damage, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.
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
Called SERVPRO of San Mateo because I had a leaking sink that was causing mold, and their crew came that same day to fix the affected area right away! Thanks, SERVPRO of San Mateo
I had a roof leak at my home in Burlingame causing significant water damage to two rooms in home. SERVPRO of San Mateo was contacted by my homeowners insurance to mitigate water damage. Fabian, Daniel and Francisco were my angels for several days!! They had to remove all room contents and they did it so carefully and neatly. Equitment was set into rooms for a few days in order to dry the walls etc. Fabian the project manager kept me updated every day with progress and what to expect next. All three gentlemen have a tremendous work ethic,very professional but so kind and thoughtful also. Thank you so much SERVPRO of San Mateo!
Special thanks to SERVPRO of San Mateo for helping me with my water damage due to a failed water heater. My insurance company sent them out and they were awesome - professional, great customer service, responsive to phone calls (telephone calls answered promptly) and wonderful onsite employees to work with. They took great care not to remove fans too early, testing the moisture level of the affected areas frequently so we would not have mold in the future. I especially enjoyed working with the office who helped pack up my items to be stored off the property and then helped unpack after my home was ready after repair. Carolina went above and beyond in trying to meet our needs/requests. She and all the people at SERVPRO of San Mateo crew were fantastic. I would highly recommend this company!
I have a second home in Richmond CA. We had the unfortunate incident in having a pipe burst in the laundry room. Since we didn't find out for a few days half the first floor was damaged. The team at SERVPRO of San Mateo came out right away and got the job done. The place looks better than the original. Thank you, guys! I will be sure to pass along this info to anyone I know needing any work done.
I had a new dishwasher installed recently and the installer didn't connect the water line properly. It ended up flooding our kitchen floor and ruined my hardwood floors. Insurance paid for the damages but it was a really stressful experience. The adjuster recommended I use SERVPRO of San Mateo to dry out my floors and they ended up minimizing the damages and saving a portion of the floors. Even though the water damage and flooding were stressful, SERVPRO San Mateo saving a portion of my floors was a silver lining.
Jose and his team were very helpful and professional in helping fix extensive water damage through multiple parts of the house. They were communicative through the assessment, demolition, and cleaning process from start to finish. They worked quickly and efficiently to help resolve the issue and were courteous and safe the whole time.
We had major water damage in our kitchen which also damaged the ceiling underneath. The guys from SERVPRO were very professional. They came up with a gadget that correctly identified the affected area and they followed up with the damage control. They are a very skilled & fast serving team. Highly recommended.
This review is long overdue! Truly professionals at work and couldn't be happier with SERVPRO of San Mateo. From calling the office staff, to the technicians that arrived at my home, everything was a smooth and seamless process. No one would ever imagine a refrigerator supply line flooding your entire 1st floor and I thought I would never see the light at the end of the tunnel. But, as soon as these guys arrived onsite they knew exactly what had to be done to get my home to pre loss condition. Can't thank you guys enough, highly highly recommended!
I was visiting my brother who lives in San Fran! Go 49ers!!! 2 weeks ago when we had a major issue with the dishwasher, the machine started dumping water while we were watching the football games in the evening and we didn't notice until the kitchen and part of the dining area was completely soaked! Neither one of us has ever been in a situation like that and it is disconcerting to say the least. We immediately started getting towels but it was just too much water. Our neighbor heard the commotion (it's an apartment building) and gave us the card of some restoration company called SERVPRO of San Mateo. I ended up calling as my brother was wringing out towels in the bathtub. A guy named Stephen answered and I explained the situation. He said he would get somebody out there within 2 hours and that actually happened to my surprise. We ended up stopping the water flow by turning off the valve, but the water that was already on the floor stayed there until SERVPRO of San Mateo came out and sucked it all up with this big green machine that looked kind of like a vacuum with a water tank. They set up some fans and because they came out so quickly, my brothers floors were salvaged. 3 days later they removed the fans and the place was pretty much back to how it was. The dishwasher caused the problems so we asked SERVPRO to dispose of it and they took it and junked it. It was a really old unit so if you have an old dishwasher, be careful! Thank you to Stephen and SERVPRO for the fast response.
