Sewage Cleanup Work Through Our Network
Here's what a proper sewage job includes.
Area Isolation
Containment walls and air scrubbers isolate the affected area. Clean areas stay off-limits to contaminated foot traffic.
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. Those materials can't be reliably sanitized.
Cleaning & Disinfection
Hard surfaces and framing are scrubbed and treated with EPA-registered disinfectants. Some contractors verify cleanliness with ATP swab testing.
Deodorization & Air Scrubbing
Air scrubbers and odor treatments clear the smell once contamination is gone. Masking odor without removing the source never works.
Drain Line & Backflow Assessment
Common causes include root intrusion, grease, collapsed pipe, or city sewer overload. A sewer camera pinpoints the problem, and a backwater valve guards against recurrence.

What Callers Say After a Backup
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., CaldwellI was ready to clean it up with bleach. They explained why porous materials had to be removed and why bleach alone wouldn't do it.
— Samantha K., CaldwellThe city sewer backed up into three houses on our street during a storm. The cleanup was thorough, and they suggested a backwater valve for the future.
— Henry L., CaldwellCommon Questions About Sewage Backup Cleanup
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?
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?
A camera inspection, regular line maintenance, and a backwater valve are the best defenses, along with keeping grease and wipes out of the drains.
