Comprehensive Sewage Damage Restoration

Sewage damage is a serious problem that requires immediate attention to protect your health. Sewage damage is highly contaminated water that can have harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens. Additional precautionary steps are necessary when dealing with sewage damage to protect the health of those performing cleanup and to ensure the area is disinfected and safe for use. Our sewage damage technicians will respond quickly and get to work promptly to contain the initial damage and to develop a restoration strategy to restore the affected area and to prevent secondary damage to your property.

Understanding the Dangers of Category 3 “Black Water” Damage

Sewage damage is technically classified as a category 3 cleanup and is commonly referred to as black water. This type of water damage can contain viruses, bacteria, parasites and other harmful contaminants that can cause serious illness or even death. Sewage damage occurs when sewage backs up into your home, or highly contaminated floodwaters enter your home.

Because of the high level of contamination and potential for illness, we recommend hiring a professional sewage damage cleanup and restoration company to protect your health and limit exposure to the contaminated water. At Stover’s Restoration, we use state-of-the-art equipment and have extensive training to ensure your home is safe and clean following sewage damage.

From Extraction to Drying: Complete Sewage Restoration You Can Trust

At Stover’s Restoration, we follow a detailed step-by-step process to ensure your property is safe, clean, and fully restored after sewage damage:

  • Extraction of Sewage: We begin by quickly removing all standing sewage and contaminated water from the affected areas.
  • Steam Wash of All Surfaces: Every surface is steam washed to break down and remove harmful contaminants.
  • Carpet and Pad Disposal: Contaminated carpet and padding are carefully removed and disposed of for safety.
  • Structural Material Removal: When necessary, damaged drywall, insulation, or other structural materials are taken out to prevent ongoing health hazards.
  • Steam Cleaning of Floors: Flooring is thoroughly steam cleaned to eliminate bacteria and residue.
  • Final Disinfectant Application: We apply a hospital-grade disinfectant to ensure the space is sanitized and safe.

Sewage damage restoration is the process of safely removing contaminated water (Category 3 “black water”), cleaning affected areas, disposing of unsalvageable materials, disinfecting surfaces, and restoring your home to a safe condition.

Yes. Sewage water often contains bacteria, viruses, and harmful pathogens that can cause serious illness. That’s why professional cleanup is essential to protect your health and prevent long-term contamination.

In many cases, porous items like carpet and padding must be disposed of for safety. However, some belongings and hard surfaces can often be cleaned, disinfected, and restored using professional equipment and techniques.

The timeline depends on the extent of the damage, but most sewage cleanups can take anywhere from one to several days. After extraction, we use drying equipment and air scrubbers to ensure the area is fully sanitized and moisture-free.
