Cleanup Process

  • Extraction: Sewage is extracted from affected areas using industrial-grade pumps and vacuums.
  • Disinfection: Contaminated surfaces are disinfected using EPA-approved disinfectants to kill bacteria and viruses.
  • Deodorization: Specialized deodorizing agents are used to neutralize unpleasant odors and restore a fresh scent.
  • Drying: Advanced drying equipment, such as dehumidifiers and air movers, are utilized to remove excess moisture and prevent mold growth.
  • Restoration: Damaged materials and structures are repaired or replaced as necessary to restore the property to its pre-loss condition.

Will Sewage Smell Go Away?

The lingering smell of sewage can be a significant concern. While proper cleanup and disinfection can significantly reduce the odor, it may take some time for the smell to dissipate completely.

Factors that affect odor removal include:

  • Severity of the sewage backup: Larger backups or leaks produce more odor.
  • Type of sewage: Blackwater (raw sewage) is more odorous than graywater (wastewater from sinks and showers).
  • Duration of exposure: Longer exposure to sewage increases odor intensity.
  • Proper cleanup: Thorough cleanup and disinfection, as outlined above, is crucial for odor removal.

In severe cases, additional steps may be necessary, such as replacing affected drywall, flooring, or insulation. With proper cleanup and disinfection, most sewage odors will dissipate within a few days to weeks.
