Causes Of Sewage Backups
Main Sewer Line Backups
Sometimes, after a heavy rain, your city’s sewage system can’t handle the excess volume, causing backups in your home or business. Other times, tree roots can collapse or permeate the main drain extending from your house to the city’s sewer line.
Toilet & Sink Overflows
We use our plumbing fixtures many times a day, but when they aren’t working, your house can’t function. We need our toilets and sinks to drain. When they don’t, and the gray or black water keeps trying to go down but can’t, it goes elsewhere – namely, all over everything, soaking into floors, drywall, and insulation.
Broken Drain Pipes
Once you flush, that water has to travel through an extensive piping system in your home before it reaches the main sewer line. If pipes break, crack, or burst, sewage can start seeping out under your floors or behind your walls. You might not know a problem until you notice a persistent smell.
Sewage Damage and Drain Backup Restoration Services
Right up there with floods and fires, the impact of a sewage disaster on your home or business is excruciating. The presence of Category 3, or “black water,” puts life at a standstill. You can’t go on business as usual without a sewage or drain backup. It needs to be cleaned up FAST. Sewage is particularly damaging to flooring and structural supports because of microbes and bacteria, and it’s hazardous to your health.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN UP SEWAGE ON YOUR OWN. DIY attempts at sewage removal and cleanup inevitably neglect the unseen damage the presence of blackwater caused. Weeks or even months down the road, you’ll realize that the mess you tried to clean up has been causing more and more damage behind the scenes. Also, the chemicals required to sanitize the area properly can be dangerous to use without the proper training and equipment.

SEWAGE DAMAGE?
HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED
Identifying a Sewer or Drain Line Issue Before a Disaster
Handling a backed-up drain line, overflowed toilet, or septic system failure before you have extensive sewage damage is not an easy feat. That is why it is crucial to identify the symptoms of a potential failure early – before it turns into a catastrophic event.
Gurgling Sound within the Drain Line
Are you noticing an odd sound when you flush the toilet or run your faucet? This could be the air bubbles within the drain line resulting from a small leak within the pipe. This sound could be the first sign an issue is forming and needs to be addressed before you have sewage damage.
Pipes Slow to Drain
Do you notice your toilet flushing slower than normal, or your kitchen sink is draining longer? A leak or clog could be present or forming within your drain lines.
Sewage Smell
Under normal circumstances, you will never smell raw sewage from your drain lines. If you detect an odd, distasteful smell, it is time to call a professional to rectify the situation quickly. The longer you wait, the worse the damage could be.
Water Pooling Around Sewer Lines
Every property has a sewer line from the city service or septic tank. If you notice water pooling around those areas, call a professional immediately. This presence indicates an issue with your sewer line and could cause severe sewage damage to your home or business.
