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.
SERVPRO saved the day. Their techs arrived within hours of a burst hot water tank that flooded two levels. The clean-up was thorough and professional. In the following days, they restored the walls and floors. It looks fantastic and the insurance claim was fast and easy.
The SERVPRO Kensington team from the office staff to the water mitigation team to the rebuild team and hardwood floor refinisher have been exemplary! After a pipe burst in our kitchen the team was on site within hours to start demo and drying. Within one month our entire basement was put back to its original finished state and the 1st floor hardwoods replaced and restored. Highly recommend this team. Special mention goes to Kenny, Omar, Alex and Orlando!
Alexis and Justice came to install the fans and dehydrators. They were SUPER-nice and explained things well. They cleared out the damage and left things as tidy as possible. Alex was the one who came to pick up the equipment 3 days later. He was also very helpful. Thanks SERVPRO for all your help!
SERVPRO was recommended by my insurance company and I have been very happy with their work. Great communication, great follow up, and great employees. They call when they are on their way and show up at the time I'm told. Employees are polite, knowledgeable, efficient, and organized. I would recommend them to family & friends.
Erick and Justice were professional, thorough, and personable. They walked us through every step of the process and answered every question we had. They were on time and really put us at ease when they were able to mitigate all of the water damage quickly. Really top notch service and we are truly appreciative.
When my basement and lower level flooded SERVPRO was responsive and were able to get out to assess and repair the situation within a day. It took a few days for all work to be complete, but that was explained. We had called another company and was told it would be a week before someone could come assess. No thanks, I don't even know what the situation would have looked like if we waited that long. So thankful that SERVPRO was able to get out immediately to prevent potential further damage.
Many thanks to Alex and Omar for responding promptly to my residence after a tree fell on my roof. They were on top of things from the start and helped get things moving in the right direction. Great teamwork and very professional.
The next day, Shaun and Edgar also did a fantastic job. They were polite, professional, and meticulous in cleaning up all of the debris in the room. Very satisfied!
Eric and Jury were very professional and explained the process.
"I was very pleased with the work done by SERVPRO this week. Alex Urita, the crew chief, was both knowledgeable and creative in working successfully with several unusual features of the job. Alex and his crew steadily worked hard, long days. The bonus was that through it all Alex was very thoughtful and pleasant to work with."
