Biohazard Exposure: Sewage contains harmful pathogens, bacteria, and viruses that pose significant health risks to your family and pets.
Structural Deterioration: Wastewater can quickly seep into floorboards, drywall, and framing, leading to long-term structural instability.
Secondary Damage: High moisture levels from sewage spills create the perfect breeding ground for mold and mildew within 24 to 48 hours.
Advanced Extraction & Drying: We utilize industrial-grade pumps and dehumidifiers to remove standing water and moisture quickly and efficiently.
Deep Disinfection: Our team uses professional-grade antimicrobial treatments to sanitize and deodorize every affected surface.
Sewage damage can arise from various sources, and understanding these can help you take preventive measures:
Blocked drains can cause sewage backups, leading to overflow in your home or business.
Severe storms can overwhelm municipal sewer systems, causing sewage to back up into properties.
Aging or improperly installed plumbing can lead to leaks and backups, resulting in sewage damage.

Homeowner’s insurance may cover water damage, but specifics depend on the cause and your policy. Typically, sudden and accidental water damage, such as from a burst pipe, is covered. However, damage from neglect, like long-term leaks, may not be. Review your policy and consult with your insurance agent to understand your coverage options and ensure you’re adequately protected.
While you wait for our professionals to arrive, consider these steps to help manage the situation safely:
Stay away from the affected area to minimize exposure to harmful contaminants and bacteria.
If safe, turn off the main water supply and electricity to prevent further issues and hazards.
If you must enter the area, wear gloves, masks, and protective clothing to protect yourself from pathogens.
Take photos or videos of the sewage damage for your insurance records, which can assist in filing claims.
Contact your insurance provider to report the damage and discuss coverage options as soon as possible.
While standard water leaks can sometimes be handled with a shop vac, sewage is classified as “Category 3” or “black water.” This means it contains gross contaminants, including human waste, bacteria, and viruses like Hepatitis A or E. coli. Professionals use hospital-grade antimicrobials and specialized containment systems to make sure these pathogens aren’t tracked into “clean” areas of your home, which is nearly impossible to do without industrial training and gear.
During the restoration process, technicians set up physical containment barriers using heavy-duty plastic sheeting. They also utilize “air scrubbers”—large filtration machines equipped with HEPA and charcoal filters. These machines create negative air pressure, which pulls contaminated air and odors through the filter and vents them outside, preventing the “sewage smell” from migrating into unaffected rooms.
Generally, if porous materials like carpets, padding, or unfinished drywall come into direct contact with sewage, they must be removed and disposed of. Because these materials act like sponges, they trap bacteria deep within their fibers where disinfectants cannot reach. However, non-porous surfaces like tile, concrete, or metal can usually be fully salvaged through a rigorous multi-stage sterilization process.
While many people blame the city lines, backups are often caused by internal issues such as “fatbergs” (congealed cooking grease poured down drains) or invasive tree roots that have pierced underground pipes. Over time, these roots expand and create a net that catches debris, eventually leading to a full blockage and a backup into your basement or lowest floor.
It depends on your specific policy riders. Most standard policies do not automatically include “Sewer Backup Coverage.” This is typically an optional add- on or “endorsement.” If the backup was caused by a sudden pipe burst inside the home, it might fall under standard water damage, but if the water comes up from the floor drains due to a municipal blockage, you usually need that specific endorsement for the claim to be accepted.
While every situation is unique, most sewage restoration projects take between 3 to 5 days. The first 24 hours are focused on extraction and removing “un- salvageable” materials. The remaining days are dedicated to the “drying out” phase, where industrial dehumidifiers and air movers are used to verify the structural studs and subfloors are completely dry before any reconstruction begins to prevent future mold growth.
