Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

Finding a sewage backup in your Hudson home or business can be disastrous and stressful. Knowing what to do is key to tackling the problem head-on. There are a number of reasons a sewage backup can happen in your home, including non-flushable items clogging the lines, a full septic tank, roots growing through pipes in the yard or a blockage from the street-side. No matter what caused it, sewage is a nasty surprise that can contain potentially harmful bacteria, raw matter and debris and should be addressed quickly to minimize the damage. If this happens to a business, the potential of being closed, loss of revenue and other concerns grows rapidly.

A licensed plumbing or sewage company is the first call to get the problem remedied and then SERVPRO® of Columbia & Greene Counties will step in to handle the rest. Our heavily-experienced, highly-trained pros are on standby and ready to help with the cleanup, odor removal and disinfection of sewage backups. We'll act quickly to assess the damage, create a custom plan of attack for mitigation, work directly with your homeowners or property insurance and mobilize immediately to get you back to preloss conditions. From the cleaning and sanitizing to heavy-duty odor removal, personal property cleaning and inventory to putting it all back together again, SERVPRO® is your one-stop-shop in handling any type of sewage cleanup.

Trust the local pros, making sewage damage "Like It Never Even Happened, since 1992.

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.

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

Corey and his team were great! He had someone out to my house the day I reached out. Jose, our project manager was awesome and very responsive with getting us answers and getting their team in to do the cleaning for us.

Ayla Altmann

The Servpro team were amazing! After flash flooding they cleaned out my mud covered basement in short order, and removed all the debris. They also did a great job on my furnace duct work. The entire team were courteous and efficient and they arrived with all the equipment needed. I definitely recommend them!

Joanne Kosuda-Warner

Dre and his crew did a fantastic job. My cellar was absolutely disgusting after having muddy water up to almost the ceiling. The whole crew worked like Trojans and so efficiently emptied the cellar and the garage that had also been affected, sorted and cleaned what I wanted saved. They were very friendly....it was a joy having them at my house. I would highly recommend Servpro to anyone who needed similar services.

James Andrews

I recently had Adrian and another gentleman to my house to power wash my siding. They went above and beyond to make my house sparkle again. Job well done! I will recommend Servpro to all my neighbors.

Kim McDowell

Jamel and his crew are the best- 2 thumbs up 👍 👍 and 5 star. They were a crew Serv Pro sent to my home for Demo & recon after major water damage in my upstairs bathroom. The crew arrived on time & ready to work; a professional, happy, works well together crew that should make Serv-Pro proud with how hands on, efficient, knowledgable, professional and organized they were. At the end of their work day at my home they made this customer smile with a sigh of relief ServPro has this water damage mess I have in my home under control in a comprehensive, efficient manor with staff that represent “the best”.

Jamel and Derrick did an amazing job. Very courteous and kept you posted every step of the way.

Donelle Bailey

ServePro was amazingly responsive and thorough when a water line broke in my mother-in-law’s house. I arrived to turn the water off at 4:00 AM on Sunday morning. ServePro was there to remove the saturated wall-to-wall carpet by 5:00 PM. They did very thorough and careful work!

John Morgan

Jamel and his team were super professional and timely, they did incredible work, were very friendly and put my mind at ease in this tough situation!!! Strongly recommend them!!

We called ServPro after Airbnb guests did significant smoke and soot damaged to our newly renovated home. ServPro was fantastic from start to finish. They were able to come out to the house very quickly to evaluate the problem. Their representative, Kemore, was very professional and thorough. ServPro provided a very detailed report on the damages and what they proposed to do to remediate them (19 pages). Also, very quick turn-around for this report. When Airbnb later required an assessment by an Airbnb adjuster due to the significant value of the damages, Kemore was happy to return to the house for this assessment and helped everything go very smoothly. ServPro has just finished the remediation process and did a really great job. We are very happy to have our home back in its beautiful condition. Thank you, ServPro!
