Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

Sewage cleanup in Fort Lauderdale South is a health emergency, not a routine mop-up. SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale South responds 24/7 to toilet overflows, blocked laterals, main-line backups, and Category 3 (black water) intrusions for homes and businesses across Fort Lauderdale South and nearby Broward communities.



Avoid contact with the water, keep people and pets out of the area, and do not use household vacuums or fans that can spread contamination. Our technicians extract contaminated water and waste, protect unaffected rooms, remove porous materials when required, clean and sanitize affected surfaces, and dry the structure thoroughly before re-entry.



Heavy Florida rains and aging plumbing raise backup risk for residential and commercial properties. Call SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale South for emergency sewage cleanup and black-water remediation in Fort Lauderdale South as soon as a backup is discovered.

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.

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.

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.

About Us

About SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale South

Based in the Las Olas corridor, SERVPRO of Ft. Lauderdale South is a locally owned restoration and reconstruction company serving homeowners, condo associations, and businesses across Fort Lauderdale, Plantation, Davie, Oakland Park, and Sunrise. Our IICRC certified technicians respond around the clock to water, fire, storm, mold, and biohazard damage, then carry that same job through to full reconstruction under our own general contracting license, so you are never left coordinating a separate crew once the cleanup ends.

Locally Owned With Reach Across Florida

Our franchise is owned by Michael Panster and Joshua J. Marazzito, who also operate additional SERVPRO locations throughout the state. That structure means this office draws on the equipment, staffing, and surge capacity of a multi location ownership group while staying rooted in Fort Lauderdale, with a team that knows Las Olas, Rio Vista, The Isles, Sailboat Bend, and Victoria Park street by street.

How We Handle Mitigation and Reconstruction Together

Most restoration companies stop once the water is gone or the smoke is cleared, then hand you off to a separate contractor for repairs. We do not. Our technicians manage extraction, structural drying, and cleanup, and when a property needs rebuilding, our own reconstruction team takes over under one continuous plan. That single point of accountability is a major reason condo associations and property managers across Broward County keep calling us back.

Serving Condo Associations, Property Managers & Commercial Properties

Beyond single family homes, we work regularly with HOA boards, absentee and seasonal owners, and commercial operators in hospitality, retail, and healthcare who need recovery that minimizes downtime. Our team provides ongoing photo and video updates for owners who are out of state, and we have managed large scale recovery work including multi room hotel flooding and full condo association reconstruction projects.

Why Fort Lauderdale Trusts Our Team

We hold a 4.9 star rating across more than 380 local reviews, ahead of every other restoration company in the area. Our technicians are IICRC certified, and we work directly with your insurance provider to document the loss and support your claim from the first call through final walkthrough. Combined with more than 59 years of restoration heritage as part of the SERVPRO network, that track record is why homeowners and property managers throughout South Florida choose us first.

Proud to Support Our Community

We are an official partner of the Miami Marlins and stay active in the Fort Lauderdale community year round, because this is the neighborhood our team calls home too.
