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.

We thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance throughout the process.

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.

customers are saying

What recommendations would you have to help the SERVPRO franchise improve its performance in the future?

NONE (Excellent!)(Wish I could do a 10+)

SERVPRO was here immediately and stayed until most of the mess was cleaned up on the 1st day (furniture, insulation, sheetrock) and was here everyday monitoring and continuing to clean.

I was confident in the knowledge and professionalism of the SERVPRO Franchise's on-site personnel who performed the services at my home.

I was impressed by the SERVPRO Franchise's on-site personnel that performed services at my residence.

They were up front, direct, hard-workers, knowledgeable and looked at the whole project.

They worked with me not against me.

We were VERY satisfied with the SERVPRO company and their attention to detail.  Sam kept us informed with what they were doing, why they were doing it and the progress and the way.  We thank you for your professionalism and would HIGHLY recommend!!

Thomas and Betsy

SERVPRO did a Fabulous job on everything. They explained everything very well, everything down to the "Safety Data Sheets."

Kyle
Little Falls

We had experienced a sump pump failure and Nolan (and the team) went above and beyond.  He was professional, communicated well, got the job done, and made the best of what was a terrible situation.  We couldn't have asked for more.

The service was performed at our lake home and we were not able to be on site during the cleaning/restoration process.  We did receive photos and updates via email which were very informative and documented the progress throughout the job.

Frozen Pipe Burst

On February 1st I had a pipe burst in my lower level.  SERVPRO was able to get out to my house within the hour and begin taking care of my situation.

I had a second leak in another part of my house later in the evening and called SERVPRO back; even though they had just left hours earlier and had been there all day.  I was very impressed.

Ramsey L.
Lake Shore

I really appreciate the professionalism.  I was always called back and there was great communication about what was going on and what the plan was and I really appreciate that.  Even when this didn't work out for them to come back to clean the ducts, they called and we made an alternative plan.  I appreciate the professionalism of that & I understand that emergencies happen for your business. So I was glad you got to me on the 1st day, I needed it, so I don't mind having the follow up delayed.
