A Clear Way Forward

Sewage Needs More Than a Mop and Bleach

Sewage carries bacteria and contaminants that soak into carpet, drywall and anything porous. Even after the water is gone, what’s left behind can make your home unsafe.

We remove the sewage, take out materials that can’t be safely cleaned, disinfect every surface, and dry the area completely. Then we rebuild it.

What to Look For

Signs of a Sewage Problem

  • Water coming up through a basement floor drain
  • Toilets or tubs backing up or overflowing
  • Gurgling drains
  • A strong sewage smell in the house
  • Dark, dirty water in the basement
  • Backups after heavy rain

Sewage Backup? Do This First

  1. 1.Keep kids and pets away from the area.
  2. 2.Avoid contact with sewage. Gloves alone are not enough protection, so leave cleanup to a properly equipped crew.
  3. 3.Stop flushing and running water.
  4. 4.Turn off HVAC that serves the affected area only from a safe, dry location. Don’t enter contaminated water or touch wet electrical equipment to reach controls.
  5. 5.Call us at (248) 320-3245.

Step by Step

How Sewage Cleanup Works

01

Assess and Protect

We assess the affected area and set up protection to keep contamination from spreading. Our crew wears protective gear, and we explain which areas to avoid.

02

Extract Sewage

We remove contaminated water and waste with equipment suited to the job. We also identify whether the backup source needs a plumber before cleanup can continue.

03

Remove Contaminated Materials

Porous materials that can’t be safely cleaned are removed and disposed of properly. We explain what needs to go and document it for your claim.

04

Clean and Disinfect

We thoroughly clean affected surfaces before applying appropriate disinfectants. It takes more than wiping away visible waste to address the contamination.

05

Dry and Deodorize

We dry the remaining structure and check moisture readings before closing anything back up. Odor is treated at its source, not just covered with fragrance.

06

Rebuild

After cleanup and drying, we replace damaged flooring, walls and finishes. One team handles the work through the final repairs.
