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
Brandon and Kadari just finished cleaning my basement floor after a storm took out my sump pump at the end of July. Everything is back to normal, and thanks to Brandon and Kadari, my basement floor is clean and smells amazing!
SERVPRO did an amazing job treating the mold in our bathroom. Rob and his team were professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and completed everything in a timely manner. They made the entire process smooth and handled the situation with great care and attention to detail. We were very pleased with the quality of their work and the overall experience. I would highly recommend SERVPRO to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and efficient remediation services. Thank you to Rob and the entire team for a job well done!

They did a great job! Very professional. Every person that entered our home was kind and respectful. We appreciate working with good people especially during a stressful time.
Reggie was a big help. Hopefully I won't have to see him again.
Best service in the the kankakee area. For water fire or any restoration to your home or business. This family ran franchise treats u like family in your moments of disaster.
If I had more stars to give, I would. Their crew worked beautifully and diligently. Their response time and service are amazing. I had worked with a different team but they were lacking by comparison. Thank you, Servepro!! ❤️
Since my studio ceiling fell down on a Saturday in September of 2025 (yeah, it's been that kind of year!), ServPro Team Nichols has been my go-to for fixing just about everything needed in my home. From a team coming out at an hour's notice to carefully bag the drywall and fiberglass, vacuum, and clean off every tool and piece of equipment in my studio, to the dismantling of a water-damaged ceiling in a bathroom, to the amazing paint jobs in both rooms by Tom and Nick, and Brandon and Chase's great HVAC cleaning of the ductwork... working with ServPro has been as much of a pleasure as home maintenance and disaster recovery can be.
