Sewage (Category 3 / black water) contains bacteria, viruses, and parasites that pose serious health risks. Do not attempt cleanup yourself — professional biohazard protocols are essential.

Most policies cover sudden sewage backups. Some require a separate sewer backup endorsement. We help you understand your coverage and handle the claims process.
How long does sewage cleanup take? +
Most residential sewage cleanups take 2–5 days including extraction, disinfection, drying, and restoration. Extent of contamination and materials affected determine the timeline.
