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
The guys from SERVPRO who came out were amazing and we wouldn't have gotten through this horrible time if they didn't explain everything so great. I would definitely recommend this company to all our friends.
My mom had a hose with the washer that had leaked while at work, everything was flooded. Called SERVPRO New Bedford, they arrived the same day, cleaned up all the water and dried everything out. One of the most amazing things that happened is that the crew was able to save all my mother's wedding pictures! That means more than anything. Blessed to have SERVPRO on our side! Phenomonal work ethic!
Dropping you a note to say thanks so much for helping me! My home had been flooded by sewer water and the smell was horrific. Not only did SERVPRO arrive right away, they saved me a ton of money! If they would not have gotten here in time, everything would have been ruined. Again thanks for the superb customer service and I would highly recommend SERVPRO to anyone!
Problem with a septic line in one of the retail spaces we rent. It was Thanksgiving weekend, the biggest of the year, so it was definitely an emergency. My long-time plumber took care of the problem (see his review), we then hired SERVPRO to take care of the post-fix clean-up. No complaint with coming out on the holiday, no crazy price. They got straight to work and did a fantastic job. Professional outfit. I had not used them in the past, but no doubt will again in the future.
SERVPRO is above and beyond fantastic!! Everyone is extremely kind, trustworthy and very professional. If you want something done right --call Doug Glassman the "class act" very bright & knowledgeable owner of SERVPRO---he is exceptional!! SERVPRO deserves 100 stars!!! We highly recommend Doug's SERVPRO to anyone looking for help restoring or cleaning their home.
“We had some devastating rains come through and we were away. Unfortunately, we left our windows open. SERVPRO did a great job getting all of the water out and everything dry without us having to throw a lot of stuff away.”
I couldn’t believe how much water we had in our house from this rain. I thought it would never get dry. You guys did an amazing job. Thank you so much!!!
We are all aware that we had some nor’ eastern storms in the area which has cause a lot of damage to a lot of homes. My problem was that my sub pump failed and we had flooding in our basement. When we call our insurance they recommend a service. I understand that due to the storms all companies where busy but they never answered the phone and refused to give an exact estimate.
Needless to say SERVPRO TO THE RESCUE!!!!! Even though they were busy, they listen to what we needed called me back when they got answers and emailed over quotes when I asked. They came in and did the demo and cleaned everything out in about 4 hours. I felt comfortable leaving them in my home when I went to work and everything was completely within 3 day of calling them for the job. Also a BIG plus Is that they come in 50% lower then what the other company was trying to throw out as a number.
I highly recommend SERVPRO. Jordin and his apprentice were great to work with and you could tell he has been doing this for a while and really knows what he talking about. Also they were very carful about my cats and to make sure they didn’t go outside.
I am so grateful for SERVPRO! I had some mold in my basement, noticed my dog getting sick, since he is always in the basement family room. Called SERVPRO, they came out removed the mold and treated my basement. Thanks for the compassion that you had for my home and my dog. He is much better now! SERVPRO loves paws!
