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.

What our
customers are saying

Had a pipe freeze and burst in my house. They came out to get the water out of my home within the hour of my call. Kyle was the best!!

Matthew Martinez

SERVPRO was amazing when it came to getting rid of the mold in my basement! Joe handled all of my questions professionally. What an amazing business and crew!

Bill Mazzola

I had a toilet overflow in my master bathroom. ServPro came out quickly to get the water up and we're back the next day to finish the work. Couldn't be more thankful for the service!

Matthew DeMarsico

My toilet overflowed in the basement and got all over my carpet. They came out same day, removed carpet, and cleaned the mess up. Fast and efficient, would call again if necessary!

John Marks

Very professional and speedy with service. Would use again (hopefully not lol)!

Mark Rigazio

Awesome how their employees took care of the packout, something that i thought was almost impossible ended up being a normal day for their crew

Diego S

I had my air quality privately tested and I had a slightly elevated level of mold. I found ServePro through Google! I am so happy I found them! As soon as I met Mat for his initial visit, I knew that I was going to proceed with having them remediate the mold. He was very knowledgeable and reassuring. His men came the next week to start remediation and did a great job. There was a chance that they would have had to take apart my kitchen island, but they were able to remediate without taking it apart. I also wanted to mention that Mat was always available to take my calls and answer my questions. I highly recommend Servpro!

Ariel Rivera

Servpro guys were fantastic! They were out quickly to mitigate the water damage at my house. They kept me posted during the process and worked very efficiently.

We experienced a ruptured fire sprinkler pipe in our condo complex and water flowed from an adjacent unit, flooding our kitchen, hallway and basement. Based upon its excellent reputation, we contacted Servpro and their response was immediate. Steve, the project manager, got to work immediately and set up fans, dehumidifiers as well as other drying equipment. He oversaw every detail of the restoration and was thoroughly professional. He returned every day to check on the project, which is now complete. My compliments to Servpro and for their foresight in hiring men like Steve, a consummate professional.Without hesitation I highly recommend Servpro in Paramus. My compliments to a job well done !!
