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
Our downstairs bathroom kept running for days before we noticed and by then the floor was already bubbling up. The SERVPRO staff knew exactly what to do and we were spared the expense of replacing all of it. Thank you!
A sewage line problem required professional attention and a friend suggested we call SERVPRO. They came in shortly after we called and installed several industrial machines to extract the water. Then they made sure it was all disinfected. Best money we ever spent.
Stormwater in a basement is no joke. Thanks to your SERVPRO team, there is no more water and my basement is livable again.
My baby was due shortly after the storm, so I called SERVPRO in a panic trying to get the house back in order and disinfected. Thank you for putting up with my craziness and for helping me welcome my baby into a clean home!
We called SERVPRO to take care of the sludge left behind by the storm. As soon as we saw the equipment you were unloading from your vehicle, we knew we had made the right choice.
When the bathroom sink leaked into our custom made wood vanity I thought we were toast. One of my friends recommended SERVPRO and they came in to carefully dry the wood and let it settle back down. With their help, the sink incident didn’t escalate.
The dishwasher broke and there was water soaking the two cabinets on either side. We called SERVPRO to try to repair them and luckily they did. It sure beat having to replace them all!
We didn’t know the water line under our home had ruptured until our hardwood floors became uneven. When we called SERVPRO it was our last effort at fixing the problem instead of replacing (and trying to match) the planks affected. Thanks to you, there is no perceptible damage to our floor.
We couldn’t be happier with your service. From the moment you arrived it was clear that you knew what you were doing and we felt good about trusting you. Thank you!

About Us
Disasters can quickly get out of control in your home or business, and that is why we strive to provide a fast and reliable response when these emergencies occur. As a locally owned and operated firm, we work beyond Oakland's borders throughout all of Alameda County under the leadership of Roy Drake and experienced crew chiefs and project management. Oakland area homes can experience various potential loss situations, ranging from water disasters and flooding to fire losses and biohazards. We are prepared to help with extensive training in these niches so that no customer waits for the restoration work their home requires. Our roster features:
- Water Restoration Technicians
- Fire & Smoke Restoration Technicians
- Biohazard Cleaning Professionals
- Microbial Remediation Technicians
- Cleaning and Disinfection Professionals
Professional Mitigation Solutions When It Counts
The pace with which we can respond to active disasters can often directly impact the damage that homes and businesses endure. With a roster of professionals available to mobilize quickly at any time of the day, mitigation can get started within hours of the first notice of loss. Much of the fast response to begin this mitigation work relies on pre-stocked trailers and production vehicles loaded with leading extraction and drying tools. With water losses being the most common threat that professionals must face, we prepare for efficient water removal and cleaning.
Post-Disaster Repairs and Reconstruction
We want to be a one-stop-shop for restoration and repairs that your home might need after a disaster. With the general contractor license #937457, we can offer various helpful services to overcome structural damage and mitigate loss through efforts like a controlled demolition and discarding compromised materials. This same license can provide full-scale build-back services when necessary after a loss.
Becoming More than a Restoration Company
We seek to become more than just a recognized name in the restoration industry, but rather a helpful force for the community. As such, we directly support and work closely with local athletic groups, fundraising and awareness efforts, and national organizations such as The American Red Cross and the American Cancer Society.
