Sewage Removal, Cleanup, & Restoration

While it's possible to clean up minor spills if you take appropriate precautions—such as wearing protective gear and using disinfectants—sewage backups larger than a minor spill require professional attention. Improper handling can lead to health hazards and incomplete cleanup, leaving behind harmful contaminants. We recommend calling professionals for any substantial backup to ensure thorough disinfection and safety.

That's why we offer 24/7 emergency services, allowing us to respond to your call as quickly as possible.

Many homeowner insurance policies include coverage for sewage backups, though it's essential to review your specific policy to understand the details. At Absolute DKI, we assist you in navigating the insurance claims process by documenting the damage and working directly with your insurance provider. We aim to make the process seamless and stress-free, ensuring you receive the maximum coverage available for sewage cleanup and restoration.

At Absolute DKI, we use state-of-the-art equipment to ensure thorough sewage cleanup. This includes advanced water extraction machines, industrial-grade dehumidifiers to remove moisture, high-grade disinfectants for sanitization, and infrared cameras to detect any hidden moisture that could lead to mold growth. This technology ensures we can fully restore your property to a clean and safe condition.

The time it takes to complete sewage cleanup depends on the severity of the backup and the extent of the damage. For minor issues, the cleanup process might take a few hours, while more significant overflows or contamination might require several days to complete, especially if structural repairs are necessary. Once we assess the damage, we'll give you a detailed timeline for restoration.

Sewage backups contain harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that pose severe health risks, including E. coli, Hepatitis A, and other gastrointestinal illnesses. Exposure to sewage-contaminated water can lead to infections or illnesses, especially if it comes into contact with broken skin, eyes, or is ingested. Professional cleanup ensures that all contaminated areas are properly disinfected, protecting you and your family's health.

While some sewage backups are unavoidable, there are preventative measures you can take to reduce the risk. Regularly maintain your plumbing system, avoid flushing non-flushable items (such as wipes, paper towels, or feminine products), and consider installing a backwater valve to prevent sewage from backing up into your home during heavy rains or blockages.

Yes, Absolute DKI is equipped to handle sewage cleanup for both residential homes and commercial properties. No matter the size of the job, our trained technicians are ready to restore your property safely and efficiently.

After the initial cleanup and disinfection, the restoration process focuses on bringing your property back to its pre-damage condition. This may include repairing drywall, replacing flooring, and addressing any structural damage caused by the sewage. We also perform moisture checks and apply mold-prevention treatments to prevent future issues.
