If sewage backed up into your Athens property, stop walking through it. Sewage contains E. coli, hepatitis A, rotavirus, and dozens of other pathogens. Our hazmat-trained crew arrives in full PPE with dedicated equipment that never touches clean-water jobs. We extract contamination, remove affected materials, and sanitize to a safe level.
Our Sewage Cleanup Process
Source Control
Our crew traces the sewage backup to its source and stops it. If a sewer line camera is needed, we coordinate that. No point cleaning up if the backup hasn't been stopped.
Contaminated Water Removal
Our hazmat crew pumps out contaminated water using dedicated equipment with sealed discharge. Cross-contamination prevention is non-negotiable on sewage jobs.
Remove & Treat
We remove contaminated materials in sealed biohazard bags for licensed disposal. Structural wood, concrete, and tile get thorough antimicrobial treatment and HEPA vacuuming.
Restore Your Property
Once the structure is decontaminated and dry, our crew handles the full rebuild. New materials, fresh finishes, and peace of mind that the contamination is completely gone.

About Our Athens Sewage Cleanup Services
Our protocol starts with source control — shutting the sewer line or identifying the backup point. Then we extract with sealed Category 3 equipment. Every porous material below the contamination line gets removed: carpet, pad, drywall cut 12-24 inches above the waterline, and insulation. Remaining surfaces get Bio-Cide and Concrobium treatment.
The biggest mistake with sewage backup is waiting. Every hour that contaminated water sits increases scope and health risk. Call (866) 993-3605 and our Athens crew arrives within the hour with full PPE, proper equipment, EPA-compliant disposal, and complete decontamination.
