Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

Sewage Cleanup in Fort Lauderdale North

What Should You Do If Sewage Backs Up in Your Home?

Shut off the water source if it's safe to do so and stay away from the affected area until help arrives. Sewage carries bacteria and contaminants that put your health at risk the longer it sits, so SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale North treats every backup as a same-day priority across Oakland Park, Tamarac, Lauderdale Lakes, and the surrounding North Broward area.

How Our Sewage Cleanup Process Works

Our IICRC certified technicians extract contaminated water, remove materials that cannot be salvaged, and sanitize every affected surface following industry protocols for Category 3 water intrusion. We follow with antimicrobial treatment and controlled drying to bring the property back to a safe condition before any repair work begins.

Sewage Backups in Older North Broward Homes

Aging plumbing is common throughout North Broward's older neighborhoods, making sewer line backups and septic system failures more frequent than in newer construction. Our technicians are equipped to handle these older systems, working efficiently even when access is limited or the source of the backup isn't immediately obvious.

Insurance Coordination for Sewage Damage

We document the damage and work directly with your insurance provider to support your claim, reducing the paperwork burden during an already stressful situation and keeping the process moving from start to finish.

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.

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

About SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale North

SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale North is a locally owned restoration and cleaning company providing round the clock emergency response for water, fire, mold, storm, and biohazard damage throughout North Broward County. Our IICRC certified technicians handle everything from a single burst pipe to full scale storm recovery, giving homeowners, condo owners, and business operators one trusted team from the first call through final reconstruction.

Local Ownership With Resources Across Florida

Our franchise is owned by Michael Panster and Joshua J. Marazzito, who also operate additional SERVPRO locations throughout the state. That partnership gives this office something smaller independents cannot match: the accountability of a local crew paired with the equipment access and staffing depth of a multi location ownership group. When a major storm hits and demand spikes across the region, that added capacity means faster mobilization instead of longer waits.

Serving Fort Lauderdale North, Wilton Manors, Oakland Park & Beyond

We respond throughout Fort Lauderdale, Wilton Manors, Oakland Park, Lauderdale By The Sea, Sea Ranch Lakes, Pompano Beach, Galt Ocean Drive, Tamarac, Lauderdale Lakes, and Lauderhill. Our coastal service area brings its own set of risks, including storm surge exposure along Galt Ocean Drive and Lauderdale By The Sea, aging infrastructure in older inland neighborhoods, and the year round mold pressure that comes with South Florida humidity. Our technicians build every restoration plan around the specific property and the specific risk, not a generic checklist.

What Happens When You Call Our 24/7 Team

Our centrally located warehouse keeps pre stocked trailers ready for immediate dispatch day or night. Once on site, our team assesses the damage, secures the property if needed, and begins mitigation right away for water extraction, fire and smoke cleanup, mold containment, or storm response. For jobs that require rebuilding, we handle reconstruction in house so you are not left coordinating a separate contractor after the cleanup ends. We also work directly with your insurance company to document the loss and support your claim from start to finish.

Why Property Owners Across North Broward Trust Our Team

Backed by more than 59 years of restoration heritage and an A+ BBB rating, we hold a 4.8 star average across more than 160 local reviews. Customers regularly call out technicians like Carlos, Jonathan, and Keith by name for the calm, thorough way they handle a stressful situation. That combination of certification, tenure, and a genuinely local crew is why homeowners, HOA boards, and property managers with multiple units across the region keep us on speed dial.

Rooted in the Broward County Community

Beyond restoration work, we are proud partners of the Miami Marlins and active supporters of the American Red Cross, the MS Society, and Big Brothers Big Sisters. We show up for our neighbors on the job and off it, because North Broward is where our team lives and works too.
