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.
Avoid all contact with sewage-contaminated water
Turn off the main water supply to prevent additional flow
Shut down HVAC systems to stop contaminated air from circulating
Evacuate people and pets from affected areas
Call SERVPRO immediately for professional cleanup
Work with SERVPRO to contact your insurance company and document the damage
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
Washed my kitchen ceiling Steve 1, Steve 2. Nice job. However not fsn of citrus smell. But it looks sparkly. Thks.
Had a water overflow issue in my basement and called ServPro in Cary. They were out here ASAP, ripped out damaged carpet, hardwood, and drywall, and had my basement dry in only a few days. Significantly reducing additional damage. They checked moisture readings each day and even helped with some electrical issues. Steve, Blake, Dante and team made this nightmare accident much more bearable. Thanks for all the help!
We experienced a sewer backup in our basement last Friday night. Black Diamond (5/5 stars) sent a plumber out to rotor out the sewer line We also contacted this ServePro office and they had their staff at our house early Saturday morning. They more than met my expectations in their cleanup and remediation of the affected section of the basement. I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend Servpro of Southern McHenry Cty!
Super awesome quality, helped me a ton. Had real integrity every time they came out. Each worker that came out deserves a shout out, but the names I can remember were Samantha and Paul. They always were super professional.
There is no other choice for restoration. A fantastic experience throughout.
I had a garage fire last month that ended up causing smoke damage to almost my entire house. Steve from SERVPRO came out and showed me where the smoke damage was and worked directly with my insurance company to get everything cleaned up and restored. I had previous experiences with other restoration companies (I will not name names though) that were INCREDIBLY stressful because I felt like I was being pulled in so many different directions by my insurance company and the restoration company. Having SERVRO dealing directly with my insurance adjuster made the process so much smoother and pleasant, and my house actually looks better than it did before the fire.
Used SERVPRO for the second time now and everything was just as fantastic the second time around. I guess I have really bad luck because I keep having water damage happen at my house, but these guys made these awful and irritating situations much more bearable and much less traumatic! Thanks again SERVPRO, and a special thanks to Steve & Paul. You guys are rockstars!
Mike G did amazing on my house and I would recommend to anyone!
