Sewage Cleanup and Restoration

Our highly trained technicians are IICRC certified and equipped with the latest technology and adhere to industry-leading standards to handle sewage emergencies effectively. We understand the severe health risks associated with sewage contamination, including harmful bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Our team utilizes advanced equipment and protective gear to ensure thorough and safe cleanup, mitigating the potential hazards to you and your family or employees.

Our sewage cleanup process begins with a thorough assessment of the affected area. Using state-of-the-art moisture detection and thermal imaging equipment, we identify the extent of contamination and moisture infiltration. This allows us to develop a targeted and efficient cleanup plan tailored to your specific situation.

The next step involves the removal of sewage and contaminated materials. Our team employs powerful extraction equipment to remove standing water and waste, followed by the safe disposal of contaminated materials. We then use advanced cleaning agents and disinfectants to sanitize the area, eliminating pathogens and odors.

Drying and dehumidification are critical components of our restoration process. We utilize industrial-grade dehumidifiers and high-speed air movers to thoroughly dry the affected areas, preventing mold growth and further damage. Our moisture detection tools ensure that the area is completely dry, leaving no hidden pockets of moisture that could cause future issues.

There are three major types of contaminated water. SERVPRO of Memorial West, NW Houston will inspect that contaminated water to determine the type of water and then plan the appropriate response to safely restore your home or business.

The three types of contaminated water:

Category 1: "Clean Water"

This is water from a clean source, such as a broken clean water supply line or faucet. If left untreated, category 1 water can quickly degrade into category 2 or 3 water depending upon such factors as time, temperature, and contact with contaminants.

  • Water from a clean source like a broken water line
  • If left untreated, can degrade into category 2 or 3

Category 2: "Gray Water"

This water has a significant level of contamination that could cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Sources for category 2 water may include washing machine overflow; toilet overflow with some urine, but no feces; or dishwasher overflow.

  • May contain bacteria and viruses
  • Can quickly degrade into category 3 if left untreated

Category 3: "Black Water"

This water is grossly unsanitary and could cause severe illness or death if ingested, and any contact should be avoided. Sources for category 3 water could include flooding from rivers or streams, water from beyond the toilet trap, water from the toilet bowl with feces, or standing water that has begun to support microbial growth.

  • May contain untreated sewage, harsh chemicals, and microbes
  • Water from flooding rivers or sewer backup
