Steps in Our Sewage Damage Restoration Process


1.svg

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.

Victor was amazing, truly a huge help. He provided top notch customer service, education about our situation, recommendations to help save our tile after a minor flood, and followed up for additional testing. He even went to the crawl space to take measurements to verify the floor was dry. He’s the best, we’re so grateful to him!

I recently worked with Warren at SERVPRO and I couldn't be more impressed with their service. From start to finish, Warren was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He arrived promptly and thoroughly assessed the damage before explaining the entire process in detail. SERVPRO used state-of-the-art equipment and their attention to detail ensured that all water damage was addressed, and my home was restored to its original condition. The technicians were courteous, respectful of my property, and took all necessary precautions to ensure safety. SERVPRO’s commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in their exceptional work. I highly recommend their services.

I just recently started working with SERVPRO after a pipe burst and flooded one room in my house two days ago. I have been very happy with the company so far after two visits and can highly recommend using them if you have a similar issue. I was so upset when I first called because of the water soaking the room, but SERVPRO came out within the hour and set up fans and a dehumidifier, and things are drying out - yay!! Juan, Garrett, and Daniel have been so helpful, professional and calming during this ordeal, and they have patiently answered my many questions and explained everything clearly and completely. I feel so much better since all this started! Highly recommend this company!

Working with SERVPRO has been a great experience! Waking up to a lake in our bathroom was not ideal in any way, but working with Production Manager, Victor, and his crew of Daniel, Johnsey, Ezekiel and Garrett, has worked out marvelously. Melissa in the office has been phenomenal as well and has really helped me understand the process and has kept me up to date every step of the way. Thank you for your outstanding service, SERVPRO!
