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

SERVPRO did a good job of drying out my house after a leaking washing machine faucet.

In a previous position as a Properties Manager, we called SERVPRO out for a large water damage job for one of our tenants. They responded quickly and completed the cleanup before Monday morning. Other than the employees on site for the job, no one else knew there had been a problem. It truly was like it never even happened.

Look no further than SERVPRO of Chattanooga to help you fix your flood damage. I'm so glad I called! Without their expertise, I would still be trying to figure it out.

I would never call on another water damage repair service, because all the others cannot even compete with their prices or service. Thank you SERVPRO.

SERVPRO of Chattanooga provided very quick and comprehensive service when a broken water line flooded the basement rooms of our house. The cleanup they did was thorough and restored the space to its pre-flood condition. They were courteous and professional throughout the drying-out process. I highly recommend them.

Volker H.

To begin with, the torrential downpour of rain we received on a Friday night was a devastation.  To have lived in a house for 35 years and never have an experience such as that is to say the least.  

From the first encounter with Tammy at SERVPRO to the appointment with Tony, our experience couldn't have been more pleasant. Nerves are frayed and not knowing who to trust was a big issue, however, Tammy made the first impression of being very kind and explained what would take place with the call from Tony F.  

Tony reaches out to us and makes the appointment.  He was on time and very pleasant.  He explained to us what our situation was and the time frame of drying out the basement.  The techs came out installed the equipment and came back to check the status the next day.  

We were very pleased with the work from start to finish.  Tony's knowledge and professionalism really exemplifies his commitment to his job.  If the need arises we will definitely use SERVPRO.  Most definitely recommend this business.

I am so very appreciative and pleased with the quality of work that Matt Holland and his Storm Team did at my flooded home in Nichols, SC. I would highly recommend SERVPRO and Matt and his team to anyone that needs fire or water restoration. I am happy that I had the good sense to use professionals like Matt that SERVPRO provides.

Matt worked hard to dry my crawl space and inside my home and also do the mold and mildew restoration under the house and inside as well, including the furniture. He kept me informed daily of the progress which I greatly appreciated. Matt and his team conducted themselves very professionally at all times. They were also extremely nice and kind, explaining everything they were doing and offering suggestions as to what should be done. Best of all, they put up with me and my millions of questions.

I am very fortunate to have selected SERVPRO for my flooded home. Not only do I feel very comfortable that my home is dry and free of mold and mildew. I am 70 years old and can honestly say that I have never worked with anyone that was as pleasant and kind as Matt and his team. I would recommend SERVPRO and Matt to anyone.
