Services We Provide
What To Do When Sewage Damage Happens
A sewage emergency is both unexpected and overwhelming.
Planning for a sewage emergency is probably the last thing on any homeowner’s mind. However, sewage damage can happen to anyone, in any home, at any time.
Knowing what to do in those first few moments can help protect your home and health. Here are some recommended steps from SERVPRO.
Steps in Our Sewage Damage Restoration Process
Sewage Removal & Contamination Control
Sewage backup emergencies carry viruses and bacteria that cause serious illnesses. Our SERVPRO professionals will address immediate hazards and stabilize the affected area. We clean up sewage spills and biohazards using specialized equipment and training, thoroughly and safely from start to finish.
Sanitization and Deodorization
Using our meticulous state-of-the-art protocols, our team of experts ensures that your home or building is safe and thoroughly clean. After sanitization, advanced equipment helps us find and eliminate any hidden moisture, so you know your structure is dry.
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.
Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly — we address sewage issues swiftly to control costs, prevent further damage, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.
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
Marco and his team helped my family through the difficult process of removing the water damaged interior of my home after a water hose broke and flooded my house while I was on vacation. Marco's team responded to the late night phone call to help deal with the flood. His team was at the house in less than an hour and began the restoration/demolition process. His team has a great relationship with the insurance company which allowed the work to be completed correctly. I would not hesitate to recommend Marcos and the SERVPRO team.
We used SERVPRO to remediate a water leak from a washing machine that damaged the floors / walls and led to a large project to replace almost all of the floors in the house, repaint, and put it all back together again, including asbestos removal along the way. Pedro V. was so helpful through out the process in communicating where things stood, answering questions, pushing contractors to complete their work, and helping us make decisions to come to the best answer. We are so happy with the completed project, and especially thankful for Pedro's guidance in the process. I would highly recommend SERVPRO and particularly Pedro as he was very reliable, trustworthy, a great communicator, and very competent at his job - everything you look for in a contractor.
This team, led by Project Manager Adrian Guzman, came to Texas to take care of our water damage from a busted pipe. The team was GREAT! They were very timely and professional in all the work they did. They answered any questions I had and took time to explain everything. And also, we were very pleased with the set up and clean up. I was very glad they made the long trip from California to help us out. And Thank you, SERVPRO for servicing us so quickly!
We had a water line break during covid. The damage was significant. Adrian at SERVPRO did an amazing job of cleaning up the site, drying it out, and then leading a great team of subcontractors to bring our home back to its original glory. He was honest, fair, on time, easy to communicate with. We would 100% recommend Santa Barbara SERVPRO.
Pablo and Adrian are OUTSTANDING and very Professional. I Enjoyed working with these qualified workers. OUTSTANDING!
SERVPRO in Santa Barbara provided us with the exceptional, prompt & professional service we expected. They were the first call we made after the pipe to our water heater burst and finally got shut off. Adrian and his team arrived within an hour and took care of everything that was necessary and set up their fans & equipment to sit as long as it took to remove any moisture. In the following days JC & Jesus visited our home to monitor moisture levels and provided us with quality customer service. From beginning to end our SERVPRO experience was everything we hoped for, they were timely, effective, professional and likable. I will definitely use them again if needed and a recommendation I wouldn't hesitate on offering to my family & friends if they are ever in need of this type of emergency clean up. A+ service and if I had it to do over again I would use them again. They saved the day for us, Thank You!
Jaime responded immediately. Marco’s team did an excellent job. Josie and Jaycee worked hard to resolve our flood and moisture issues. They were all professional and I highly recommend them.
We had the most bizarre situation occur while we were on vacation, resulting in kitchen and partial house flooding. We called SERVPRO, and they’ve been amazing. Marco, Jozy, and Pablo removed EVERYTHING from our kitchen, floors, partial walls, cleaned, and dried out everything. All before we returned from vacation. I’d highly recommend them to anyone who ends up in a similar situation!
On June 19, 2022 the wash machine hose of our upstairs neighbors' washer detached from the machine and flooded both their unit and ours. Fortunately, our neighbor called SERVPRO as soon as he discovered the problem, and they were here within 25 minutes, which was amazing, considering that this was a Sunday morning. The workers immediately began to mop up the water in almost every room of our condo and to protect household items that were getting wet from water that kept coming down through the ceiling via light fixtures even after the water was shut off. They were kind, understanding and very professional, patiently answering all our questions and telling us what to expect in the next few days. They set up 9 fans and 3 dehumidifiers to get rid of all the moisture as a way to prevent mold, and they had to come back for eight days to monitor the drying process until everything was finally dry. They came on time every single day, and even a bit early on some days. On the last day they carefully put rugs and furniture back into place. You couldn't ask for harder-working, more helpful, more professional people to deal with a dreadful mess. I highly recommend this company to anyone who's suffered a major disaster. They'll get you through it.
