Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?
Sewage Cleanup and Disinfection
Sewage system backups consist of grossly unsanitary water that can pose a serious health threat. Unless these biohazard incidents are handled using specialized gear and processes, they can cause illnesses through the spread of viruses and bacteria.
Since 2009, SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell, Burke and Catawba Counties has worked with hundreds of homes and businesses in the Hickory, Lenoir and Morganton, NC communities to keep their properties clean and safe from sewage backups. Our professionals are IICRC-certified and use PPE and other equipment to safely clean and remove sewage. We'll also sanitize affected areas to prevent the spread of any pathogens that may have been present. Our goal is to make any incident "Like it never even happened."


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
I am very pleased with the work they have done to my home. It was a mess from a water damage issue but SERVPRO of Catawba County East did an excellent job of cleanup and repairs to my home. Like they say, "Like it never even happened."
The SERVPRO people did a fantastic job repairing the flooring that was severely damaged by the water leakage from the refrigerator back in the fall of 2018. They took care of everything from A to Z. The people were friendly, knowledgeable and caring to work with. I’d strongly recommend that you have SERVPRO to work with you in the event anything serious should happen in your house, and those people would guide you step-by-step direction of taking care of your home. Not only that, but they’d also take care of you as well.
I had a massive leak with my washing machine that caused water to get behind my walls & made its way downstairs! So I literally had a flood in my foyer! David with SERVPRO came right out, analyzed the situation & determined where I had the moisture, cut the walls out, removed the damaged installation & brought in the dehumidifiers & fans! He checked in daily to check on the status on the drying process & today, 5 days later, we had dry walls! YAY! So I meet next week with the adjustor & SERVPRO's adjuster, to start as I call, "Phase 2" of this process...putting my home back together again! But if the contractors that come into my home are anything like David, I'll be a VERY happy customer! I am a single mother to 3 children, so I am very funny about who I let into my home. I felt safe with David in my home & around my children, like I didn't need to stand over him & watch him. He was respectful of my home, and very accommodating to my hectic crazy schedule! Highly recommend to anyone! 10 STARS!!
Cannot say enough about the level of professionalism and service I received from SERVPRO of Catawba County. We had a water leak from our ice maker. Every step of their service from restoration to repair to clean up was fantastic. We had sub floor repairs, hardwood floor repair/ refinishing, dry wall, paint and more. Their cleaning crew was amazing and my house has never been so clean! All the contractors they supplied were excellent. They even worked out payment details with our insurance company. The attention to detail at every step was amazing. SERVPRO scheduled everything with special attention to making it work with my schedule. The teamwork they provided was outstanding in everyway. They made a very painful/difficult situation, painless. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Thanks to all at SERVPRO of Catawba County for your care, attention and service.
Our mold disaster was out of control! Thanks for cleaning out our apartment. We are so glad that we called you! SERVPRO is the best.
When my washer was leaking in my laundry room and the warm dryer air mixed with it the mold took over a small area of my wall. Well I thought it would be just a quick and simple fix but a week after trying to clean it myself. Turns out it was more than I could handle. Thanks SERVPRO for getting it done for me.
After having recurrent mold issues with both our front and screened back porch for several years, we called SERVPRO. To begin with, we were impressed with the detailed abatement estimate. The work crew was professional and Michael answered all our questions. He was thorough and explained the process every step of the way. After the mold abatement, the final step was to apply 2 coats of Enviroshield to the ceilings. The work crew covered the porch decks and all surrounding areas with plastic sheeting for protection. It looks great and we couldn't be more pleased.
SERVPRO did an excellent job removing the mold in my house. They were very efficient and thorough. Mike answered all my questions. He showed me pictures he took during the process. They left the place cleaner than it was when they came! Thank you!!
When severe mold damage nearly cost me my home, it was time to call in professionals that know how to treat it effectively. The SERVPRO team will do the job right for you, also.

Hi, we’re Kim and Randy Williams, the proud owners of SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell, Burke and Catawba Counties.

Today, we have over 70 employees and operate four franchises that serve the entire Unifour region, including Lenoir, NC; Morganton, NC; Hickory, NC; Newton, NC; and Conover, NC. Our employees take to the streets 24/7/365 to meet the disaster restoration needs of our customers. We are here to help and make any size disaster “Like it never even happened.”
