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
I was impressed by your team of people that came into my home. I thought they did an outstanding job and performed the work exactly as they explained. I liked how they showed up with smiles on their faces every day. Have a nice day.
I have a home in xxxxxxx. I am a business man that puts in an extra amount of time. I was concerned when my insurance company told me I had to have a company like SERVPRO come out. When I met Sean, he told me he would help accommodate me by placing a lock box on my door. He promised he would text me when he was both entering and exiting my home. SERVPRO (of Hockessin) did exactly just that. They were remarkable and I would use them again in a heartbeat!
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to commend your team for their quick response to my mother's home. She was quite overwhelmed and you made her at ease. The home is like your commercial. "Like it never even happened." Job well done!
Jeff
Sean,
Your crews were the kindest, respectful individuals. It is difficult, especially in today's world, to find a company that has such talented employees. They should be commended.
Barb
Unbelievable how the SERVPRO showed up on time. They even called on their way and made me feel at ease. I would use them again if I ever were to have an emergency. Well done SERVPRO!
SERVPRO of Hockessin/Elsmere is a wonderful company with a team of compassionate and thorough employees. I was in need of a company that could help with our burst pipe in our celling. The team was efficient and they were able to identify another area getting ready to go that was missed as well. They first came out in the middle of the night and an additional crew came out in the morning. I greatly applaud their communication to identify additional hazards in my home.
We would like to say thank you to the three outstanding gentlemen who cleaned the stove and oven in our kitchen.
I want to tell your company that your employees went above and beyond my expectations. It was a Sunday morning before church and your crews showed up exactly when they said they would and even called me later to address my questions. Your team is exceptional!
Your crews were extremely professional and courteous. I was pleasantly surprised at the work ethic your crews maintained. I always heard great things about your office but I still think they went above and beyond my expectations.
