Why Oregon Calls Us for Sewage Backups
Sewage cleanup is not a do-it-yourself job. Exposure can cause gastrointestinal illness and infections, and improper cleanup leaves contamination behind in materials you can't see into.
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. That protects your family and the rest of the house.

What Sewage Backup Cleanup Covers
Here's what a proper sewage job includes.
Area Isolation
Containment walls and air scrubbers isolate the affected area. Foot traffic is limited to protect clean rooms.
Sewage Extraction & Material Removal
Waste and water are extracted, then porous materials like carpet, pad, drywall, and insulation that contacted sewage are bagged and removed. 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
Air scrubbers and odor treatments clear the smell once contamination is gone. Real odor control means removing the source first.
Drain Line & Backflow Assessment
Common causes include root intrusion, grease, collapsed pipe, or city sewer overload. A plumber's camera inspection finds the cause, and a backwater valve can help prevent a repeat.

When the Drain Backed Up
These callers all dealt with sewage in the house.
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., OregonI 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., OregonThe city sewer backed up into three houses on our street during a storm. They had our basement sanitized and recommended a backwater valve so it doesn't happen again.

Is sewage backup dangerous?
It is. Sewage contains pathogens that can cause gastrointestinal illness and infections, so avoid contact and keep the area closed off.
Can I clean up sewage myself?
Small, contained spills on hard surfaces might be manageable with proper protection, but most backups involve porous materials and hidden contamination. Professional cleanup with PPE, containment, and registered disinfectants is the safer choice.
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.
