Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?
Sewage is used water. Whenever water leaves your home or business through the use of toilets or appliances that water is introduced into the sewage system. The sewage system is meant to be a one-way system, designed to move in one direction — away from your home!
Unfortunately, this is not always the case. The sewage at your building sometimes moves the wrong direction and is reintroduced into your space in a less than desirable way.
Below we list three different types of water as separated into categories: clean water (category 1), gray water (category 2) and black water (category 3). Scroll down to learn more.
But, as is implied above different types of sewage have different levels of risk and danger. As a general rule all sewage should be considered unsafe and contaminated and very dangerous stuff! It may contain bacteria and viruses that could cause serious illness. Caution is the rule.
Cleaning sewage requires delicacy and technique. Our SERVPRO of Downtown San Antonio/ Team Friermuth team has the training and tools to address sewage clean-up with safety and precision.
So, don’t risk it, call us and let us help you!
Services We Provide
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.
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
After torrential rain, our home flooded! We didn't realize we had a leak. The Friermuth team came to our house as soon as we called and got to work removing water!!
Some severe weather hit our area and our home suffered from some leaks and water damage. SERVPRO of Downtown San Antonio fixed up our home so fast we didn't even have to worry about it!
Joseph and Adrian were very professional. They were able to show up the same day that we found our mold issue, which is really important with the upcoming holidays since it prevented us from being able to install our new refrigerator. They worked quickly and we’re very polite and helpful throughout the whole process. They even found my wedding ring behind the fridge in the wall. The ring have been lost for over eight years. I couldn’t be happier.
Great experience compared to the other franchises Ive used for the same purposes in the past, mainly to mitigate organic growth in a vehicle we were working on. This location was out next day and had the repairs wrapped up within a few hours. Id recommend this SERVPRO of Downtown San Antonio/Team Friermuth to anybody in need of restoration services.
We found mold damage behind our fridge one day. Our family didn't know what to do but we found SERVPRO and they came over right away! They used equipment to find every spot that had mold and clean it up safely.
My laundry room, two bedrooms and 1/2 of my living room had an inch of water due to washer overflowing. Carlos and Chris and the rest of their team came out in an hour and made sure things were taken care of which put us at ease during a difficult time. Thank you!
Marek, and Chase are one of a kind. Professional, and funny at the same time. Made us feel so comfortable while dealing with some water damage to our RV
Joseph and Adrian came out and did a really great job taking care of us! We’d recommend them to anyone needing help with water damage.
Andres and Chris treated us like family when we had water damage

Our Story
SERVPRO Team Friermuth began in 1992, when Doug Friermuth opened the doors of his very first SERVPRO franchise out of a garage on South Hill in Puyallup, WA. With just one truck and a one-man crew, Doug built his business on hard work, trust, and a commitment to helping his community through life’s toughest moments.
In 2014, Team Friermuth established headquarters in Puyallup, WA, and has been growing ever since! Today, under the leadership of Doug’s son, Kevin Friermuth, we are proud to be a second-generation SERVPRO team with 13 franchise licenses across Washington and Texas.
