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
Thank you for going above and beyond when boxing up my water damaged belongings. My things were handled with care and were kept safe. SERVPRO of Tacoma provides outstanding service!
Everyone who came to our home acted with courtesy and respect. They communicated the process and what they were doing, to whom it needed to be communicated with. We appreciate all they did to complete the dry out, save as much of our house as possible, and prevent mold.
The technicians kept me up to date on everything, even the small things. They answered any questions I had with prompt and accurate answers. They are a great team. I will use SERVPRO of Tacoma for any future water losses.
The SERVPRO staff made this experience as stress free as possible being so far away from my property. They are great!
SERVPRO of Tacoma is awesome! We had our whole house full of water due to a broken pipe on the top floor. SERVPRO was on site within the hour, explained the process to us, and proceeded to make this experience as easy as it could be, given the circumstances.
We had expensive damage to most of our flooring and some of our walls due to a long term hot water leak under the house. SERVPRO came to the rescue. They were courteous and respectful as we were living here much of the time they were working. Jason and Leonard were responsive to all of our questions and concerns about the work that need to be done. We are renters so they were responding to both our family's questions as well as the owner of the house. They were also knowledgeable and informed us of what to expect as the process proceeded. We have young children so they were respectful with their language and conduct and kept the environment as safe as possible for our family. We were thankful when their work was completed, yet grateful we had SERVPRO here to do it.
The technicians helped clean up water damage that affected 3 bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, hallway, and living room in my home. They always showed up on time and got right to work. The technicians are low key, personable, and stopped whatever they were engaged in to answer any questions that I had.
The staff was very professional and pleasant to work with. Their professionalism and dedication to getting the job done right, the first time, was obvious. Outstanding service!
The crew was great! They explained everything thoroughly and the work was completed in the time frame they provided, upon initial inspection. They answered all my questions so I was confident in them and the work being done by their team.
