  • Strong sewage odor in the home
  • Multiple drains running slowly at the same time
  • Gurgling sounds from drains or toilets

Our Sewage Backup Process in Friendsville

  1. 1

    Containment

    Affected area is sealed off to prevent cross-contamination of clean parts of your home. HVAC is shut down to stop airborne spread.

  2. 2

    Extraction in Full PPE

    Crews in respirators and protective suits extract contaminated water and remove unsalvageable materials following IICRC S500 protocol.

  3. 3

    Demolition of Porous Materials

    Carpet, padding, drywall below the contamination line, and any other porous material that absorbed sewage gets cut out and properly disposed of as biohazard waste.

  4. 4

    Cleaning & Disinfection

    Hard surfaces scrubbed and disinfected with EPA-registered biocide. HEPA air scrubbers run throughout the cleanup to remove airborne contaminants.

  5. 5

    Drying

    Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers dry the structure to standard, with moisture verification before reconstruction begins.

  6. 6

    Reconstruction

    Drywall, flooring, baseboards, and trim rebuilt to pre-loss condition, all with new materials.

Sewage Backup in Friendsville — FAQ

Is sewage cleanup covered by insurance? +
It depends on your policy. Many standard policies exclude sewer backup unless you carry a specific rider. We document the source thoroughly to give your claim the best possible footing.
Can I clean it myself? +
No. Category 3 water contains pathogens that require specialized PPE, training, and antimicrobials to handle safely. DIY cleanup creates serious health hazards and almost always misses contamination behind walls and under floors.
Will my belongings be safe? +
Hard, non-porous items can usually be cleaned and saved. Porous items (upholstered furniture, mattresses, paper goods) that contacted sewage typically need to be discarded for safety.
How long does sewage cleanup take? +
Extraction and demolition usually run one to two days. Drying takes another three to five days. Reconstruction adds one to three weeks depending on scope.
