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
I contacted Servpro after a nightmare experience with a different restoration company that lasted one and one half months. James, the construction manager has been outstanding with his communication and professionalism throughout the process. He has gone over and beyond to ensure our hot water was restored after one and one half months without and that the reconstruction of the damaged walls were done in a very timely and efficient manner. He was very instrumental in dealing with our insurance company and kept me informed of every step. I strongly recommend Servpro for your restoration needs. They are kind and efficient and treated me and my family in the utmost respectful manner. Kudos to Karen too who works in the office. She timely referred me right away to James and handled billing.
They were clean, professional, quick, and just simply awesome!

After having an under slab water leak, it was our insurance company that contacted Servpro initially and, within hours, they arrived to start mitigation procedures. From the onset, Jim was our main contact with Servpro and his attention to detail was simply unparalleled. If i needed to contact him for anything, his office staff would relay the request and Jim's response was always without delay. I simply can't say enough regarding Jim as he went far and above in everything from start to finish. I think it's important to note that his demeaner is not only what really kind of sets him apart in that he genuinely cares about your needs, the task at hand, and the overall satisfaction of the client. Virtually seamlessly, Servpro worked hand in hand with our insurance company (AAA) while keeping me in the loop which relieved a lot of stress. The crew that did the actual physical work were equally impressive in their attitude and graciousness in getting things done in an efficient manner. It is my honest opinion that if you ever find yourself in the most unfortunate position of having to deal with some sort of fire, flood, or other, the Servpro team is who to call. A sincere thank you to the entire Servpro team.
SERVPRO has been outstanding in our flood restoration project. They are very prompt in responding, very knowledgeable in working with insurance and set us up with some great subcontractors for the extra things we wanted done. I highly recommend them. Whenever I contact them, they get right back to me with what I need.
I had an outstanding experience with Servpro San Luis Obispo! I have a listing that needs to be sold, but after discovering significant pet order and damage I knew I needed a professional. Their team arrived promptly and got straight to work. They were professional, knowledgeable. What really stood out was their attention to detail and commitment to making sure everything was done right. The project manager James Porter did an awesome job keeping everything in order. James and his crew handled the property with care, communicated clearly throughout. The finished work exceeded our expectations—the home looks just like new, if not better. I can’t recommend Sevpro San Luis Obispo highly enough. If you're ever in need of restoration services, this is the team to call.
We had a major water leak in the kitchen a couple of months ago, but were unaware of the extent of the damage until ServPro came out to inspect the floor. Once they did, things moved very quickly - Karen worked with our insurance company and had their repair crew out to the house the following week. Excellent job, and very caring, considerate service. Highly recommend.
