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.

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.

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

Running an in-home daycare for busy working parents means I have to stay on top of everything, especially the carpeting where their kids play. I trust SERVPRO to get it clean and odor-free for me on a regular basis. You guys rock!

Brenda W.
Bay Ridge

Some cleaning rags caught fire and got the sprinklers turned on, and that ruined all our printshop materials. Glad SERVPRO® stepped in and helped get an inventoried list and took care of the water and smoke.

Thomas K.
Bay Ridge

Happy your team showed up ready to start cleaning and deodorizing. We are both thrilled that you got rid of the smoke and other funky odors from the group of vandals and worked with our insurance, too. They said your fast response helped our boutique stay in business.

After I quit smoking, my house's constant smell of cigarettes kept tempting me to smoke again. My friends said to call SERVPRO to have the walls cleaned with a special soap. I did, and the odor is gone now.

Kim R.
Bay Ridge

My former roommate was using a bunch of candles all through the house and forgot one. She caught the living room on fire. I won't have another roomie, but I know I can depend on the team at SERVPRO.

Lindsey S.
Bay Ridge

Our kids came upstairs from playing in the stream of water from a stream of water from a busted elbow joint. I wasn't home but you told my wife how to turn off the water main. I believe you saved our house. Thank you!

Tracy K.
Bay Ridge

Thanks for helping me and my upstairs neighbor Shelly with our 2 apartments and all the work to get things straightened up and dry again. Who knew so much water could come out of a broken water pipe like it did?

Lauren V.

So glad you could save my carpeting when my new washer overflowed the first time I used it, it really made a mess. Now I know frontloaders only get a little bit of detergent! Can't thank you enough!!

I just inherited my aunt's home and found several problems with it. The first and worst was the mold all over the bathroom downstairs. I couldn't even go in but your crew took care of it and even gave me before and after pictures.
