Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

You Should Not Wait To Clean Up Wastewater and Sewage in Your Great Neck Home 

Though there are numerous biohazards that our professionals must address in this division of our roster, sewage backup can be among the most immediately threatening to Great Neck homes. Our technicians need to take whatever steps are necessary to clean and sanitize the affected areas as promptly as possible. Exposure to sewage can lead to illness and health effects without the appropriate personal protective equipment, and that is why our SERVPRO professionals are ideal candidates to clean up the mess and restore the damaging effects. 

Threats of Cross-Contamination and Exposure 

Property owners might not realize the harm they could be doing to the rest of their home by going in and out of the damaged area. After a biohazardous condition has gotten discovered, it is always the best choice to actively avoid the area and to prevent others in your household from accessing this damaged area as well. Not only can bacteria and viruses be present in the environment, walking through contaminated water can move these same germs and bacteria throughout previously clean areas of your house. 

Minimizing Risks After Sewage Backup 

While it is crucial to reach out to our qualified SERVPRO team as soon as possible, you can also benefit from: 

  • Avoiding the contaminated area
  • Stop air circulation appliances running in the house
  • Close off access to the damaged area when safe to do so

Our garage flooded after a recent storm, and I wasn't sure where to begin. Their technicians set up drying equipment, arrived promptly, and kept me informed at every stage. A stressful situation was made manageable by their attention to emergency cleanup.

The lead technician, Mike, was incredibly calm and took ten minutes just to walk me through the drying process so I wouldn’t panic about the hardwood. They used these heavy-duty dehumidifiers that were surprisingly quiet.

I called them after noticing water damage in my basement, and they responded pretty quickly. The work was done efficiently, and they kept me updated along the way. Appreciate how smooth they made the whole process.

After finding mold in our bathroom, I called them. The technician didn't try to upsell us on extra services and gave us a thorough explanation of everything. They treated the area appropriately and got rid of the mold. I'm pleased with the outcomes and reasonable prices.

Dean Farley

These guys arrived at my door within an hour after a pipe burst in my basement last month. The team put up drying equipment and worked quickly to remove all the water. Everything was managed expertly from beginning to end. I'm glad they managed to get things under control so fast.

The cleanup of my commercial space after a fire was nothing short of amazing. The professionals made sure the property was returned to a clean and functional state while being meticulous in their removal of smoke odors. Their strategy reduced downtime, which was essential for my company.

On the weekends, I like to go downtown and enjoy a leisurely walk along the waterfront. The tranquility there balances out the hecticness of everyday life. It's one of the little pleasures of living here.
