Sewage Backup and Toilet Overflow Cleanup

Sewage damage is a serious problem stemming from the outflow of sewage into your property. The contaminants found in sewage and sewer water contain numerous potential biohazards and bacteria which can present serious health risks to people. To effectively prevent and remediate sewage damage, it is necessary to understand the potential causes.

Sewage backups are usually caused by blockages or clogs within drain pipes. The pipes can be in your home, or can occur in municipal sewers and main sewage pipes. When this happens, the sewage from your home or business has nowhere to go and backs up into your property. When sewage backups occur, they can come through any drain, including toilets, sinks, bathtubs, and floor drains in a basement.
