Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?
Sewer Backups Mean Cleanup in Shreveport
Multiple times of the year, Louisiana is battered with intensive flooding, and the ground cannot soak up all the water. The great Mississippi forms most of the eastern border before it cuts south through the "boot." Then the Red River, Bayou Teche, Atchafalaya, Bayou Lafourche often overwhelm and bloat waterways pushing southward toward the Gulf of Mexico. Floodwaters endanger life, infrastructure, homes, commercial property, and farmland.
SERVPRO of South Shreveport is acutely aware that Mother Nature's flooding can also bring too much water in our flatlands, causing municipal sewer to become overcapacity damaging infrastructure, homes, and businesses. It is difficult and expensive to repair and also creates health hazards.
Other causes of sewer backup include:
• Tree Roots: Roots enter the service pipe at joints, cause blockages, and can travel a long way.
• Sanitary Main. A blockage can occur in a city sanitary main when sewage from the main can back up through floor drains.
• Basement Water. When soil settles, rainwater can flow down the foundation wall in buildings.
Whether saturated rivers or groundwater, tree roots, or central lines cause sewage backup, the water is unsanitary and may contain bacteria and viruses that could cause serious illness. SERVPRO of South Shreveport is experienced in evaluating whether the contents and a structure may be
decontaminated and restored or whether everything must be removed and replaced.
Call SERVPRO of South Shreveport. We have the team, specialized training, and equipment necessary to clean contamination safely.

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.
