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.

When I had a tree fall on the back of my house form a summer storm my insurance agent called SERVPRO of Southern Scioto & Lawrence Counties.  They were on site within a couple of hours. They coordinated the removal of the tree and the tarping of the roof before the end of the day.  They had the construction started and finished within 5 business days.  I could not be more pleased with them.  I would use them again any time.

I called SERVPRO of Southern Scioto and Lawrence Counties because my insurance agent suggested them.  I now know why they suggested them.  They got to me very quickly and worked diligently to get my basement cleared out and dried.  They then made sure that it was put back the way it was and replaced a damaged vanity.  Great work and I would definitley suggest them myself.
