Sewage Cleanup Jobs Callers Shared

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

With kids in the house, I wanted it contained. The plastic barrier and air scrubber kept it all downstairs.

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.

It depends on the size of the backup and where it is. Small contained areas may be fine with containment in place. Large backups, or households with infants, elderly, or immune-compromised people, often warrant staying elsewhere.

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

Often only with a sewer backup add-on. Your agent can tell you what your policy includes.

Tree roots, grease clogs, damaged pipes, and city sewer overloads are the usual culprits.

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.
