Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

Sewage backups are not a DIY situation. Category 3 water, the classification for sewage, contains harmful bacteria, pathogens, and contaminants that pose serious health risks to anyone who comes into contact with it. When it happens in your home or business, you need a team you can trust to handle it safely, quickly, and completely.

SERVPRO of Media and SERVPRO of Central Delaware County have been serving Delaware County for over 30 years. Our IICRC-certified technicians arrive fast, assess the full scope of contamination, and use professional-grade extraction equipment and EPA-registered disinfectants to restore your property to preloss condition, not just clean up what you can see.

We work directly with your insurance company to simplify the claims process, and our crews are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week because sewage backups don't wait for business hours. Homeowners and businesses throughout Media, Newtown Square, Springfield, Ridley Park, Wallingford, Folsom, Sharon Hill, and the surrounding Delaware County communities trust us when it matters most.

When sewage damage strikes, don't wait. Call SERVPRO of Media and SERVPRO of Central Delaware County and let us make it "Like it never even happened."

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.

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

Floribel and hector were amazing and professional. Thank you so much!

Kaitlyn Carvin

Just a remarkable service. Came the monring after I called - got a crew in place within an hour. Highy professional, very organized. Explained everything, invited questions, checked in with progress reports, came back to the house every day through a holiday weekend. Cleaned up as they went along, took all the refuse with them. Foribel was so organized and competent. She and her team - Salvador, Jose and Monica - were efficient, polite, clearly knew what they were doing.

Beyond pleased with Pro Action getting my basement back to good after a damaging HVAC leak. They were professional, knowledgeable and their good vibes helped me stay stress-free through the mitigation. Highly recommend!

Nikki Thomas

They were very good explained everything The only thing, when they put tape on walls the paint came off and when they removed the door stopper there’s a little hole in the wall from the door knob But otherwise they were great!

Joanne Cardelli

“My grandmother’s house flooded and it was such a stressful time for our family. SERVPRO Team May arrived about 20 minutes after we called they were ready to go right away. Every single person on the team was kind, caring, and quick. They worked efficiently and clearly knew what they were doing, and it meant so much to see them treat my grandmother’s home with so much care. Thank you to the whole team for taking such good care of us!”

Brandon Coyne

I cannot say enough good things about Servpro! When we had an electrical fire we needed some cleaning. Mike, the owner, came out immediately to assess the situation, and Steve, the manager, was right behind him making sure everything was handled quickly and professionally. Floribel did an outstanding job managing the entire crew. Samantha, Ruby, and Said were hardworking, courteous, and extremely thorough throughout the process. The team treated our property with care and respect. I highly recommend Servpro to anyone in need of restoration services. Thank you, Mike, Steve, Floribel, Samantha, Ruby, and Said, for a job well done !

Kevin Diegnan

Very Professional and fast! Thank you so much!

After pipe leaked and ruined basement floor they came out the next day did an estimate and sent workers back later the same day to remove the wet flooring and dry out the walls. It was a big relief they got things set up so quickly.
