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

Tracy Saltsman and her colleague were absolutely wonderful! Responsive, explained everything so that I understood, and very knowledgeable.

Yvonne Carner

I had a biohazard carpet tear out in a bedroom. All of the bedroom carpet and padding needed to be torn up and disposed of properly. Tracy and Jennifer were the technicians sent to do the job. They were fantastic! They explained what they had to do, put on their PPE, then worked together to get it done. Worried about contamination in the room, I asked if they would pull up the carpet strips too. Jennifer checked the truck and said they had the tool to do it and did that for me also. They sanitized the room when they were done. ServPro of Geauga county was wonderful to work with from the first phone call to the completion of the job. I highly recommend them.

Nedyne Danzey

Serv Pro has done another incredible job for us! This is our third time around, and they have always treated us so well. Tracey and her crew have been working tirelessly, and are so tuned into us and what we need to have done. They are experienced, professional, and very friendly and polite. Thank you for all you do!!

Sue Lundstrom

So far so good! The team arrived expeditiously and I really appreciated how calm and professional Tracy managed the situation. The equipment has been running all weekend.

Museum Girl

Tracy S. was a lifesaver! She took care of my cleaning problem efficiently and thoroughly! Very satisfied with the total experience.

Pamela Miller

Tracy and her team were outstanding! We called around 8 pm because of our ice dam and they arrived just after 9pm and started drying out our den. They came several more times and were efficient and meticulous in their clean-up process. We would use them again in a heartbeat!

Debbie Perelman

Fantastic response, communication and service. We had a small issue in our basement that was not noticed and created quite a problem. We contacted ServePro on a Sunday evening. They responded that night, arrived at our home on time with two vans filled with equipment the next morning. The issue was fixed in hours. Within one week their commercial dehydration units were removed. And construction inside shortly after. I would highly recommend using them if an issue presented itself.

David Livingston

My basement flooded a few weeks ago…ServPro of Geauga responded right away and got everything out and started the drying process…gotta say when I first saw the ladies I wasn’t sure they could move all that heavy furniture out but they are amazingly strong!! Everything was perfect!! Thank you for your professional friendly service !!

Mary Zimmer

From the start, Mike and his crew displayed professionalism and genuine care. Mike walked me through the entire restoration process and introduced me to the technicians, all of whom were respectful and knowledgeable. They took great care to protect our interior—laying down drop cloths, sealing off work zones, and even covering hardwood floors before starting repairs . Each day, Mike’s team communicated their progress and shared clear, understandable updates. When they discovered hidden water damage, they quickly resolved it and coordinated seamlessly with my insurance provider. The result? A perfectly restored home that looks brand new—truly “like it never even happened” . What stood out most: their finishing touches. Mike inspected every repaired surface, ensuring it was flawless and a pristine cleanup. They treated my home like their own, and it shows. If you're in Geauga County and want a restoration team that's punctual, professional, communicative, and genuinely personable, call Mike at SERVPRO of Geauga County. They exceeded every expectation—I couldn’t be more impressed. Highly recommended!
