You flushed, and the shower drain in the basement started gurgling. Minutes later, raw sewage was coming up through the floor drain and both toilets. This is Category 3 blackwater, loaded with bacteria and viruses, and it is not something to mop up with household cleaners.
Free referral to independent, licensed and insured local pros. Zip codes served include 84118.

We are a referral line, not a contractor. Calls are routed to independent local pros around Kearns who handle biohazard sewage cleanup, not just clean-water leaks.
Crews wear disposable coveralls, nitrile gloves, rubber boots, eye protection, and respirators so pathogens do not leave the work area on their clothes.
Plastic barriers seal off the affected area, and HEPA air scrubbers create negative pressure so contaminated air does not drift into clean rooms.
Each contractor carries independent licensing and insurance. Ask for proof before work begins, especially for biohazard work.
You get a written estimate that covers removal, disinfection, and drying before work starts.

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.

Sewage is pumped and vacuumed out with equipment reserved for contaminated water, then disposed of properly.
Carpet, pad, drywall, insulation, and particleboard that touched sewage cannot be reliably disinfected and are bagged and removed.
Concrete, framing, and tile are cleaned and disinfected with EPA-registered products at the correct dwell time.
After disinfection, HEPA air scrubbers and odor control treatments remove lingering sewage odor from the air and structure.
Cleanliness is checked, sometimes with ATP swab testing, before drying gets the area ready for rebuild.
Tell dispatch which drains are backing up and how far the sewage spread.
A local contractor calls back with an arrival window and reminds you to keep everyone away from the contaminated area.
The pro sets up containment, assesses how far contamination reached, and gives you a written estimate before removal begins.
Contaminated materials are removed, surfaces disinfected, odors treated, and the area dried. The contractor may recommend a plumber to clear or camera the main line.
Stop using water and keep everyone away. Help can be on the way now.

Omar H.Recurring sewer backup

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.
A very small hard-surface spill can be cleaned with gloves, boots, and a disinfectant. If sewage reached carpet, drywall, or a large area, professional cleanup is the safer choice.
Many standard policies exclude sewer backup unless you have a specific sewer or drain backup endorsement. Check your policy with your agent.
Tree roots, grease clogs, damaged pipes, and city sewer overloads are the usual culprits.
No. We connect you with independent local pros. Verify their license and insurance before work starts.
