What To Do When Sewage Damage Happens
A sewage emergency is both unexpected and overwhelming.
Planning for a sewage emergency is probably the last thing on any homeowner’s mind. However, sewage damage can happen to anyone, in any home, at any time.
Knowing what to do in those first few moments can help protect your home and health. Here are some recommended steps from SERVPRO.
Avoid all contact with sewage-contaminated water
Turn off the main water supply to prevent additional flow
Shut down HVAC systems to stop contaminated air from circulating
Evacuate people and pets from affected areas
Call SERVPRO immediately for professional cleanup
Work with SERVPRO to contact your insurance company and document the damage
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
Arturo with the mitigation team and Jeremy with the reconstruction team did a fantastic job getting my basement back together after a failed sump pump. They both communicated well, used professional equipment and got my basement back to how it was looking before in no time. They worked hard and now I am able to enjoy it again. I would highly recommend Servpro especially Jermey and Arturo!
We have used ServPro of Gurnee several times for water damage in our new home and have been so impressed every time, cannot recommend them highly enough in an emergency. John, Arturo, Jhon B and Lino all had high levels of professionalism and were so careful with our house. I was nervous with it being new but they took every precaution and got it back to its original state without damage! They did not oversell us but also gave me confidence there wouldn’t be any lasting impact. The office was also great to work with and so accessible. I feel so fortunate to have found this company!
All of the crews did a very good job, Coco and Eli did a wonderful job doing the final cleanup. Would highly recommend
They say everything happens for a reason, and I wonder if the reason we had a kitchen fire was so I could experience the excellent service I got from the ServPro cleaning crew. Starting with Everardo, the crew captain, and all the crew: Julio, Brandon, Coco, Issac, Lino, Arturo, and John B ( I hope I didn't miss anyone). They had the highest work ethic, were polite, and energentic throught the 6 days they worked at our house. It can be unsettling to have strangers in your home, cleaning each and every item that has smoke damage, washing your clothes and packing your belongings to be taken to their facility for cleaning; but because of their professionalism I knew I could trust them. Even my little dogs liked them, and they are particular! I would definately recommend the crew from the Gurnee office to anyone who needs restoration work. They are all invited back for some homemade Horchata once my kitchen restoration is complete!
When life throws you lemons make lemon poundcake 🍋 Thank you to: Young John, Tanner, Isaac Jr, Old Man John, Kyle, and all the other nice men that did my mitigation service. You guys were a true blessing. And to the efficient dispatcher "thank you for getting that call out promptly!" Excellent customer service!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding service from Servpro during our water remediation. The crew was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough from start to finish. Huge thanks to Julio, Brandon, Manuel, Tanner, Deanna, and Betza for their hard work, clear communication, and care for our home. They made a stressful situation much easier and delivered excellent results. Highly recommend Servpro!
I highly recommend ServePro of Gurnee. They did a fantastic job of cleaning my basement floors after having drainage installed. They were professional, kind, and extremely thorough.
Ivette and I are beyond happy with our new kitchen! Jenny, Cody, Jeremy, Eli, Bob were awesome. Jenny's communication was excellent. Cody coming out and checking out everything to summit to State Farm. Glad he was very detail oriented because we were missing some cabinets and I didn't know, which could of cost me down the road. Jeremy has this personality that makes it feel you've known him for some time, excellent communication skills as well, overall great guy! Eli and bob were very friendly and obviously knew what they were doing. Any issue that came up Jeremy was on it. Overall Satisfied with Servpro.
Want to send thanks to Kyle, Julio, John R, Arturo, Brandon and John B for being the calm in the storm of a kitchen mess. Thanks for the exceptional professionalism and kindness!
