The work involved

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.

24/7 Emergency Sewage Cleanup experts in Murphysboro, IL

Removing Raw Sewage

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

Discarding What Cannot Be Cleaned

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

Antimicrobial Treatment

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

Odor Removal

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

Confirming the Area Is Clean

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

FAQ

Common Sewage Cleanup Questions

How do you classify contaminated water like sewage?

It is Category 3, meaning grossly contaminated. That category triggers full biohazard protocols.

Is it safe to stay in my house during sewage cleanup?

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

Can I clean up a small sewage backup myself?

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

Does insurance cover sewage backup cleanup?

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

What causes sewage to back up into a house?

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

Is A Water Damage the sewage cleanup company?

No. We connect you with independent local pros. Verify their license and insurance before work starts.
