Sewage Cleanup & Biohazard Remediation You Can Rely On

We respond in full PPE, remove all porous materials in contact with sewage per IICRC S500, sanitize with EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectants, and dispose of contaminated waste through licensed biohazard channels. Our crews are trained for residential, commercial, and multifamily sewage incidents.

Sewage Cleanup & Biohazard Remediation FAQs
- Is a sewage backup an emergency?
- Yes — sewage exposure is a serious health hazard. Keep occupants and pets out of affected areas, do not attempt cleanup without proper PPE, and call us 24/7 for immediate response.
- What gets thrown out after a sewage loss?
- Per IICRC S500, all porous materials in contact with category 3 water must be removed: drywall, carpet, pad, insulation, particleboard, upholstered furniture, and similar. Hard non-porous surfaces (tile, sealed concrete, glass, metal) can typically be cleaned and sanitized.
