Contaminated drywall, trim and flooring are removed to clean material, and waste is sealed for proper disposal.

Common Questions About Sewage Cleanup in Horseshoe Bend
What if the sewage came from a septic tank?
A septic overflow is cleaned as raw sewage, both inside any affected building and on nearby ground. Contaminated soil, materials and surfaces are handled and disinfected. A septic service may also need to empty or repair the tank.
Does homeowners insurance cover sewage backup?
Often only with an added endorsement. Many standard policies treat sewer or drain backup separately from sudden water damage. Call your insurer before cleanup begins, take photos and keep receipts, and ask what they need to see.
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.
Do plumbers clean up sewage?
Plumbers usually clear the blockage or repair the pipe, but most do not remove contaminated materials or disinfect the space. A sewage cleanup company picks up where the plumber stops, and the two jobs often happen in sequence.
Can a sewage cleanup service work at night or on weekends?
Yes. Sewage backups do not wait for business hours, so you can call Horseshoe Bend Biohazard Cleanup Help any time, 24/7. Describe what happened and you get the next safe step explained.
How do I disinfect a basement after a sewer backup?
After the sewage and soaked materials are out, floors and walls are scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant used by label directions. Unsealed concrete can hold odor and needs extra attention. Crews often handle this step with professional equipment.
