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.

Ashley Foy

Tandi was super easy to deal with and get ahold of for our service. The workers that came to do the service were also amazing , Ty and Khali were very polite and fast with the work , as well as courteous to the property itself being as old as the house it. 10/10 would recommend for getting your ducts cleaned.

Lord McStufferton

Servpro of Carthage did a great job! Tandi was very professional and easy to work with for when it came to scheduling and communicating their process. We met with her team prior to starting. Bryce led the 3-person crew; and Bryce, Khali, Derek, and Chandler all did an awesome job putting an area back to its original condition.

Christina Bennett

Tandi, Khali, and Derek came out to do a mold remediation on one of our apartments in Anderson. Tandi walked us through every part of the process, Khali and Derek were professional and quick! Amazing service and we appreciate you coming to help us! The price was a little high, but knowing a great company has their name behind the restoration helps!

Amanda Mac

I used servepro on a water line bust that flooded my basement. They did their best to minimize the water damage and made sire there was no more mold growth. They were very attentive to detail professional and great communication. On the move out and move in they treated my belongings with care. waterside was Tyler and Avery and Charles the Content side was Johnathan Alyssa and Juanita. I also had to reach out to Tandi on a few occasions for questions and details. I would not use anyone else for this type of work. Thanks!

David Dodson

Last fall we experienced a major water damage on the lower level of our house that required us to be out of our home for six months while having the mold taken care of and having essentially everything on that floor replaced and rebuilt. While no one wants to be out of their home for 6 months, especially not with toddlers and a newborn (that was born while we were displaced), Paige Lown was always quick to respond and give us any information that was available to her. Both Paige and Bryan were very responsive and gave us realistic expectations for our timeline, and we can't thank them enough for their consistent help and support throughout the entire ordeal. Paige was able to give us the run-down of all of the services that Servpro offers when the project began, maintained contact with us throughout the duration of the project and gave us updates when we were unable to check in on progress, and she went above and beyond her job description to follow up on punch-list items near the end of the project to ensure that our house was completed as promised!

Emily Hardee

The crew, Khali, Ty, and Chandler were very professional and the job was completed exactly as it should. Tandi, the supervisor completed the walk thru with me after the service was completed and we were very happy with the service.
