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 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

I would like to commend your crews on a job well done.  Every member of your team was professional, courteous, well trained, and efficient.  I was a supervisor for over 30 years at General Dynamics in Saco and would have loved to have had them on my crew.  As a retired supervisor, I know what makes a good worker. You’ve got some very good people.

A year ago, my family hired a well-known plumber to install baseboard heat to complete a second-floor remodel. Because he incorrectly connected the hot water pipes, much of of the new construction flooded through the floor and saturated the ceiling of the living room below overnight.

We were days away from hosting our son's birthday, I was nine months' pregnant, and this scene truly resembled something from 'The Money Pit'. SERVPRO was our silver lining. We called in a panic; they responded immediately. We expected them to remediate the damage, and they did. But the two gentlemen went above and beyond in professionalism by explaining to us the entire process step by step.  They joked with us and assured our son he'd get his birthday party. They removed wet debris and dried what remained, and my husband and I were fortunate that our own contractor was able to replace the damaged sheet rock and repair the carpet. In a world of construction mishaps and 'Money Pit'-style setbacks, what a relief to have the fast response and expedient work of SERVPRO.

Matt and Lisa,



I wanted to reach out as a follow-up to service. I was sent by way of recommendation from a friend Jim Mccarthy and was in a really tough spot with the house and scared as well. I wanted to follow-up with how impressed I am with Shawn Fulton and how communicative and helpful he was. He was coordinating a mass amount of work during some really tough days, and still made sure to make sure I was aware of what steps were being taken and the next steps, which by far was the most helpful of all the contractors in feeling like the horrible situation was going to be okay. I am thankful and appreciative.

 You have a great employee! I will certainly pass this on through my networks!

 Thank you so much.

We recently had major water damage from our washing machine which flooded the floor and the basement below. The SERVPRO team did a great job arriving quickly on site. Paul and the team immediately went to work identifying the issues and saving our wood floors. They worked quickly and effectively to minimize the damage and further costs. On top of that they provided amazing customer service dealing with insurance and a shout out to Karen who went above and beyond to help us sort out the payments. I highly recommend them!!
