Sewage backup is the worst water damage scenario — not just water but Category 3 contaminated waste containing bacteria, viruses, and parasites. The IICRC classifies it as the highest hazard level requiring full PPE, specialized extraction, and EPA-compliant disposal. Don't attempt cleanup yourself. Call 24/7 Water Damage at (866) 993-3605 for trained Mankato service.
Our Sewage Cleanup Process
Source Control
First step is stopping the backup. We locate the source — main line blockage, root intrusion, or pump failure — and shut it down before starting extraction.
Contaminated Water Removal
We extract sewage with dedicated Category 3 equipment — sealed units that never touch clean-water jobs. Our crew wears full PPE throughout the process.
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.
