What Sewage Cleanup Through Our Network Includes
This isn't something to tackle with household cleaners. Contact with raw sewage carries real health risks, and poor cleanup leaves pathogens in porous materials.
Proper PPE & Biohazard Protocols
Contractors wear respirators, eye protection, nitrile gloves, and protective suits, and set up containment to keep contamination out of clean areas. It keeps contamination from spreading to unaffected rooms.

Clear Pricing Before Work

What Sewage Backup Cleanup Covers
Sewage cleanup follows a strict sequence.
Area Isolation
Plastic barriers and negative air setups keep contaminated air and debris from reaching the rest of the house. Foot traffic is limited to protect clean rooms.
Sewage Extraction & Material Removal
After extraction, contaminated porous materials are cut out, bagged, and hauled off. Porous items can't be made safe after sewage contact.
Cleaning & Disinfection
Hard surfaces and framing are scrubbed and treated with EPA-registered disinfectants. ATP testing can confirm surfaces are clean.
Deodorization & Air Scrubbing
HEPA air scrubbers and deodorization treatments remove lingering odor after cleanup. Masking odor without removing the source never works.
Drain Line & Backflow Assessment
Backups often come from main line clogs, tree roots, grease buildup, or municipal sewer surcharges. A plumber's camera inspection finds the cause, and a backwater valve can help prevent a repeat.

When the Drain Backed Up
Nobody wants to make this call, but these callers were glad they did.
Tree roots blocked our main line and sewage came up through the basement shower drain. They set containment, removed the carpet and lower drywall, and sanitized the whole area. You couldn't smell a thing after.
— Alan G., AvonI was ready to clean it up with bleach. The contractor explained why the drywall had to go and why bleach wasn't enough.
— Samantha K., AvonA storm surcharged the city line and backed into several homes on our block. They had our basement sanitized and recommended a backwater valve so it doesn't happen again.

Is sewage backup dangerous?
Yes. Raw sewage is Category 3 black water and can carry bacteria such as E. coli, viruses, and parasites. Skin contact, splashes, and contaminated air can all cause illness, so keep people and pets away until it's professionally cleaned.
Can I clean up sewage myself?
For anything beyond a minor spill on tile, it's best left to professionals who have protective gear and know which materials must be removed.
What causes sewage backups?
Roots, grease, flushed wipes, damaged pipe, and storm overload of city sewers cause most backups.
Does insurance cover sewage backup?
Often only with a sewer backup endorsement. Without that rider, many policies don't cover it, so check your coverage.
How can I prevent sewage from backing up again?
Have the main line camera-inspected and cleared, avoid flushing wipes and pouring grease down drains, and consider a backwater valve, which lets sewage flow out but not back in.
