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
The crew came out to my house during the Polar Vortex in early February. They were great. The job was done quickly and the crew was very polite and professional.
I called another restoration company for a quote on the damage done in my basement from a broken sump pump. The estimate was extremely high so I called SERVPRO of Oak Park. They got there right away, provided me with a much more reasonable estimate and started the job that day. They did a great job and the techs were very personable and polite. I was very happy with the work they did.
Our insurance agent recommended SERVPRO of Oak Park when our upstairs bathroom toilet overflowed into the our living room. They were prompt and very good. Our living room was a mess but they took care of everything, even moving some old furniture to the garage for us as a courtesy.
My brother in law is a State Farm agent and he recommended that we call SERVPRO of Oak Park when our basement flooded. We called them and couldn't have been happier. The job was started right away and the techs were very polite and helpful. I even asked them to move some furniture for me that was not part of the job and they did it happily.
"The crew was great. They were very professional and respectful. I can't thank them enough."
"I cam home from a weekend away and found that water had leaked all over my kitchen from a pipe. SERVPRO was there all evening fixing the damage. They were great and got my kitchen back to normal within days."
Our sump pump failed and our 2000 sq ft carpeted basement was sopping wet. Our State Farm rep recommended SERVPRO and they were amazing. Ed and his team came the next morning and spent the next few days pumping out water, tearing out carpet, wiping the floor with antimicrobial agents and drying everything with fans and dehumidifiers. The communication and professionalism were great, and I wouldn’t call anyone else for any cleanup project.
"The team made this bad situation much easier to deal with. They did a great job."
"We had an excellent experience, thank you for your prompt professional and exceptional service."
