How Sewage Cleanup Works in Myers Corner, NY

1. Walk through the damage

Technicians trace the sewage from the source to the farthest wet spot, including under cabinets and into wall bases.

2. Extract and clear

Sewage is removed from the floor and low areas, and debris, trash and soiled belongings are cleared out.

3. Sanitize the structure

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

4. Sanitizing and deodorizing

Remaining surfaces are washed and disinfected, and odor is removed at its source rather than covered up.

Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Myers Corner, NY Property Owners

How do I clean sewage off concrete?

Concrete is porous, so sewage soaks in. The surface is scrubbed, rinsed and treated with a disinfectant, and the wash water is collected rather than spread. Stubborn odor may need a second round of treatment.

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.

Should I call a plumber or a cleanup company first?

If sewage is still coming up, a plumber may need to stop the source. If sewage is already on the floor, a cleanup team can start containing it at once. Many property owners call both, and it does not matter much which is first. Sewer backup companies and plumbers often work one after the other on the same job.

Can sewage backup make me sick even after it is cleaned up?

If the cleanup missed contaminated materials, germs and odor can linger. That is why crews remove porous materials, disinfect every surface they touched and inspect the work. Thorough removal is what lowers the risk.

Can carpet be saved after a sewage backup?

Usually not. Carpet and padding soak up Category 3 water and cannot be reliably made safe, so they are cut out and discarded. Hard surfaces, sealed wood and items in closed containers can often be cleaned and kept.

Is a sewage backup a biohazard?

Yes. Raw sewage is Category 3 contamination and can carry bacteria, viruses and parasites. That is why cleanup crews wear protective gear and remove porous materials instead of just drying them.
