1. Safety check and containment

Framing, subfloor and concrete are cleaned and treated, since sewage can soak into surfaces that look dry.

Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Meadowview / Browns Lane / Lowe Road, Louisville, KY Property Owners

How much does a sewer backup cleanup cost?

The price depends on how much sewage there is, how far it spread and which materials must be removed. A bathroom overflow costs less than a flooded basement. The team sets the price after seeing the space, and nothing is decided on a call alone.

Is sewage cleanup the same as water damage restoration?

No. Water from a clean source can often be dried in place, but sewage is a biohazard that requires removal of contaminated materials and disinfection. Drying alone does not make a sewage-affected space safe.

How do I disinfect a basement after a sewer backup?

After the sewage and soaked materials are out, floors and walls are scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant used by label directions. Unsealed concrete can hold odor and needs extra attention. Crews often handle this step with professional equipment.

What illnesses can raw sewage cause?

Sewage can carry germs such as E. coli, norovirus, hepatitis A and Giardia. They spread through skin contact, splashes and hand to mouth contact. Washing well and wearing protection reduce the risk, but removal by a crew reduces it most.

How long does sewage cleanup take?

Small jobs may be finished in a day, while larger ones with tear-out, drying and odor treatment take longer. The time depends on the area affected and what had to be removed. The crew can tell you what to expect after assessing the space.

What are the signs of a sewage leak?

Watch for a rotten-egg or sewer smell, wet spots or stains on floors and walls, unusually green grass over a pipe, and multiple drains backing up at the same time. If any of these show up, keep people away from the area and have the cause checked.
