What Sewage Cleanup Involves

Sewage cleanup follows a strict order: contain, remove, clean, disinfect, verify, then dry. Skipping a step can leave pathogens behind long after the smell is gone.

R

Sewage Extraction

Sewage is pumped and vacuumed out with equipment reserved for contaminated water, then disposed of properly.

P

Tearing Out Contaminated Materials

Carpet, pad, drywall, insulation, and particleboard that touched sewage cannot be reliably disinfected and are bagged and removed.

D

Antimicrobial Treatment

Hard surfaces are scrubbed, then treated with EPA-registered disinfectants left on for the full contact time listed on the label.

O

Odor Removal

After disinfection, HEPA air scrubbers and odor control treatments remove lingering sewage odor from the air and structure.

V

Verification and Drying

Some contractors use ATP surface testing to confirm cleaning worked. Then drying equipment runs until materials read dry.

How Sewage Calls Turned Out

Our main line backed up into the basement. They sealed it off, suited up, removed everything contaminated, and the smell was completely gone.

Carmen E.Main line backup, basement

They explained why the carpet and bottom of the drywall had to go. Not what I wanted to hear, but it made sense once they mentioned what is in sewage.

Steve R.Toilet overflow into finished room

I have little kids, so I was worried. They set up an air scrubber and plastic walls so nothing spread upstairs.

Jenna P.Sewage backup, family home

After cleanup, they suggested a camera inspection. Tree roots in the main line, now fixed.

Common questions

What People Ask About Sewage Backups

Sewage is Category 3 water, the most contaminated class. It contains bacteria, viruses, and parasites and requires protective gear, removal of porous materials, and disinfection.

Small, contained jobs may be fine. For large backups or vulnerable family members, staying elsewhere is often safer.

Tiny spills on tile may be manageable with protection. Anything soaked into carpet or walls should be handled by a pro.

Many standard policies exclude sewer backup unless you have a specific sewer or drain backup endorsement. Check your policy with your agent.

Common causes include tree roots in the main line, grease buildup, collapsed or bellied pipes, and municipal sewer overloads during heavy rain.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service connecting you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who do the work and bill you directly.
