Why You Need Professional Sewage Cleanup

Sewage water—often classified as Category 3 “black water”—is a serious health hazard. It can carry E. coli, hepatitis, and dangerous airborne toxins. That’s why we follow IICRC protocols and use hospital-grade disinfectants. Our crew safely removes waste, dries the area, and restores your home to pre-loss condition. We also remove lingering odors at the source.

  • Category 3 water extraction and disposal

  • Complete disinfection with EPA-approved agents

  • Air scrubbers used for odor and airborne bacteria

How do you clean and sanitize after a backup?

We extract contaminated water, remove damaged materials, then disinfect all surfaces with EPA-approved solutions.
