Steps in Our Sewage Damage Restoration Process
Sewage Removal & Contamination Control
Sewage backup emergencies carry viruses and bacteria that cause serious illnesses. Our SERVPRO professionals will address immediate hazards and stabilize the affected area. We clean up sewage spills and biohazards using specialized equipment and training, thoroughly and safely from start to finish.
Sanitization and Deodorization
Using our meticulous state-of-the-art protocols, our team of experts ensures that your home or building is safe and thoroughly clean. After sanitization, advanced equipment helps us find and eliminate any hidden moisture, so you know your structure is dry.
Restoration
In the last phase, SERVPRO repairs any structural damage and returns your property to its previous condition. Before the space is cleared for re-entry, we’ll conduct a final inspection to make sure the area is safe, clean, and ready for you to return.


Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly — we address sewage issues swiftly to control costs, prevent further damage, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.


Residential Sewage Cleanup
Sewage contamination in homes is often caused by toilet overflows, pipe backups, waste line leaks, or outside floodwater. Keep in mind that raw sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that can contaminate flooring, walls, air systems, and personal belongings.
With quick, professional, and discrete intervention from SERVPRO, you can avoid further damage, mold growth, lingering odors, and long-term health risks. And quickly return to a home that’s safe and livable again.


Commercial Sewage Cleanup
Sewage damage in commercial buildings can be disruptive. But with commercial sewage cleanup and biohazard restoration from SERVPRO, it doesn’t always require an extended shutdown. We act quickly to remove contaminated water, sanitize the space, and get your business back to safe operations.
We respond 24/7 with industrial-grade equipment and certified protocols. If possible, we will isolate problem areas so your operations can continue with minimal interruption.
From overflowing toilets to large-scale black water flooding, we’ve seen it all. We’re the team to make things right again.
What our
customers are saying
Servpro did an amazing job communicating with my maintenance team and me during a recent incident. Servpro was extremely professional throughout the process and very efficient in setting up the remediation equipment. 10/10 would recommend to my coworkers and anyone working in management.
I highly recommend Eder and his team! They were extremely responsive when I needed emergency service and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Their professionalism stood out from start to finish. They also provided a detailed service report with excellent documentation, which gave me peace of mind. Thank you, Eder and team, for your prompt and professional service!
Professional, thorough, and deeply knowledgeable. Omar in particular was excellent. Would definitely recommend this business for dry out and restoration needs.
The entire Servpro team was amazing. They not only spent time up front to walk me through how to think about the issue I had, but also ensured to follow up. They did not push additional work and in fact recommended less work than I thought I needed, and so gave me confidence and trust. The pricing was also really competitive. I would use them again if needed.
Our Servpro team led by Eder and Dejuan and helped by Vladimir and Jesus were AMAZING! The attention to detail far surpassed anything I expected and their communication was great. I cannot recommend them strongly enough and Servpro must be careful not to lose these very strong assets to their company!
Dejuan and Vladimir were wonderful. A pleasure to have in my home very respectful. Did a great job they ROCK..🙏
We hired ServPro of Downtown San Francisco, Mission District, Potrero Hill after our house suffered from ash, soot and smoke following the Eaton Fire. ServPro did a highly professional and effective job at cleaning our house and possessions and removing toxic materials. The project manager guided us through the process and was a very effective advocate with our insurance provider. He communicated with us often, available by text and email, and was extremely knowledgeable. The foreman of the team doing the work was also available and very open about communications. Every day he texted us an update of what was done that day, at just the right level of detail. During our walkthrough with the project manager and foreman after the job was completed, it was clear that the job was done at a high level of quality and thoroughness. In every bookcase and every cupboard, for instance, the structure itself was HEPA vacuumed and wiped, and each piece of contents was wiped. And during the walkthrough, all of our questions were answered directly, clearly, and with patience. Our suggestions were discussed or implemented on the spot. Bottomline is that we couldn’t ask more than ServPro provided for our job. Without question we would hire this ServPro franchise should we need their services in the future.
Tony came within a moments notice to provide a second opinion to my water damage. He knew he might not have received my business, but he came anyway. I really wanted to move forward with Tony, but the other business already had their mitigation equipment in my property. He was thorough w/ the assessment, provided comments to the competing scope of work, walked me through concerns w/ my insurance claim. His expertise is much needed for peace of mind.
This was the most amazing crew of people that helped us clean up after the Palisades fire. They explained the whole process and took such care with our home. Big love and thanks to Dejuan , Dona Teresa, Jesus, Vladimir, and Roling 🩷
