Gear for blackwater

Sealed work zones

Containment walls and HEPA filtration keep sewage odors and particles from spreading through the house.

The work involved

The Steps of Proper Sewage Cleanup

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

Liquid sewage and solids are extracted with dedicated equipment and disposed of according to local rules, not dumped down another drain.

P

Discarding What Cannot Be Cleaned

Anything porous that absorbed sewage, like carpet, drywall, and insulation, is removed and bagged.

D

Sanitizing Every Surface

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

O

Deodorizing After Sewage

Air scrubbers and odor treatments clear the smell so it does not return once the area dries.

V

Post-Cleanup Drying

Cleanliness is checked, sometimes with ATP swab testing, before drying gets the area ready for rebuild.

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

Common questions

Common Sewage Cleanup Questions

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.
