Professional sewage cleanup for homes and businesses in Winston, GA. Trained technicians, industry equipment, and a process you can follow from start to finish.
A sewage backup is one of the more serious situations a property owner can face, since sewage carries contaminants that pose a health risk beyond the water damage itself. Apex Restoration Services handles sewage cleanup in Winston, GA with the protective equipment and disinfection process this type of loss requires, treating it differently from a standard water cleanup from the start.
Before any cleanup begins, our technicians assess the category of water involved, since sewage is classified as contaminated water and requires a different level of protective handling than clean water from a supply line. This assessment guides which materials can be cleaned and which need to be removed and discarded due to contamination.
Removal of sewage and affected materials is done with attention to containing the contaminated area and preventing it from spreading to unaffected parts of the property. Porous materials that have absorbed sewage, such as carpet, padding, and some drywall, typically cannot be salvaged and are removed as part of the cleanup process.
Once contaminated materials are removed, we clean and disinfect the affected surfaces thoroughly before beginning the drying process. Disinfection is not an optional add on for sewage cleanup, it is a core part of making the space safe to occupy again, and we treat it with the same level of attention as the extraction itself.
Apex Restoration Services has handled sewage cleanup across Winston, GA for 15 years, understanding that this type of loss requires both technical skill and careful handling. If you are dealing with a sewage backup, call 1 (877) 264-5920 and our team will explain the steps involved.
It depends on the extent of the backup. Our technicians can advise on which areas should be avoided until cleanup and disinfection are complete.
In most sewage related losses, porous materials like carpet and padding have absorbed contaminated water and need to be removed rather than cleaned in place.
Sewage is classified as contaminated water, which requires protective equipment, different disposal practices, and thorough disinfection in addition to extraction and drying.
