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.
Avoid all contact with sewage-contaminated water
Turn off the main water supply to prevent additional flow
Shut down HVAC systems to stop contaminated air from circulating
Evacuate people and pets from affected areas
Call SERVPRO immediately for professional cleanup
Work with SERVPRO to contact your insurance company and document the damage
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
I am way overdue on writing this review. We got our rental completed by these guys earlier this year. It did take a little longer than expected but it was honestly all saved and taken care of by Stephen! I don’t have his last name but he was amazing to work with. His communication was a dream come true and his organization is a girls fantasy! Loved working with him and he made this terrifying experience a manageable one for us. Stephen also handled our tenant like a champ too! Haha. If I need to use these guys again, I’m personally asking for Stephen to be our coordinator. Thank!
Chris, Hunter, Donavan, and Pasha did everything they could to help make this a great experience after such a disaster. All of the crews were awesome! I would recommend Servpro to anyone in a situation where you need help cleaning and repairing after a flood or fire or any damage clean up and repairing after. Great job guys!!
Thursday night we had an unexpected sewer backup which flowed out of the commode onto the floor and into the laundry room, an office & den. Finally through a wall and into our shop & storage area. It was shocking to say the least! I contacted our insurance company and within 90 minutes a field manager arrived and surveyed the entire damaged areas with a digital 360 degree camera which automatically measured each area. About 90 minutes later a clean up team of 3 arrived. Zulay, Jose and team leader Wilber did an excellent job from start to finish on what I call a daunting task. Today we have about 10 industrial fans and 4 industrial dehumidifiers sucking the water out of the air and drying the floors walls & baseboards. A big job done well from the Servpro dispatcher to Hampton McClellan the field manager to the cleanup team Wilber, Zulay and Jose. I highly recommend Servpro if you ever have a plumbing or other emergency in your home.
The team of Wilbur and Leindro and Bobby did a wonderful job cleaning all the dust from a paint removal job at our home. They went above and beyond to clean and were extremely professionally.
The work was exceptional! We would do it again!!
Servpro did a great job drying out our bathroom after a leak and then rebuilding it. After another company only partially dried the water and called it complete, ServPro came in and dried everything much more thoroughly. Their pricing was fair and the teams were professional. Having experience with multiple drying companies in the area, I recommend ServPro.
Pavlo was great with the restoration process for our facility here in the East End of Richmond. From initial walkthrough to completion of project.
Great service, reliable and professional. Strongly recommend it
Had a great experience with the rebuild after water damage.
