The problem

Contaminated Water Is a Health Risk, Not Just Water

Sewage backups and other contaminated water carry bacteria and other hazards that regular cleanup methods don’t address — and materials that absorb it often need to be removed rather than dried.

What you’re dealing with

  • A sewage backup from a clogged or damaged main line
  • A sump pump or ejector pump failure pushing contaminated water inside
  • Flooding that picked up outdoor contamination on the way in
  • Uncertainty about what can be cleaned versus what must be discarded

How we solve it

  • Safe extraction using the right protective equipment and process
  • Sanitizing of all affected surfaces, not just visible cleanup
  • Proper disposal of contaminated porous materials
  • Documentation for insurance and, where relevant, health department requirements

Common questions

Sewage & Biohazard Cleanup Questions, Answered

Is it safe to clean up sewage backup myself?
It’s not recommended. Contaminated water carries health risks that need proper protective equipment and disposal methods, which is why this is handled differently from a regular water cleanup.
What happens to items that get contaminated?
Porous materials like carpet, drywall, and some furniture usually can’t be safely disinfected and need to be removed and disposed of. Non-porous items can often be cleaned and sanitized.
Is sewage backup covered by insurance?
Many policies cover sewage backup, sometimes under a specific endorsement — it depends on your policy. We document the incident to help support your claim either way.
How fast can you respond to an active backup?
We prioritize dispatch for active sewage backups across the region, 24/7, since the longer contaminated water sits, the more it can spread and the more materials it can affect.
Will my home smell like sewage afterward?
Once extraction, sanitizing, and drying are complete, odor should resolve. If a lingering smell suggests contamination remains in a hidden area, let us know so it can be checked.
