Sewage backup is Category 3 blackwater, which means it carries real health risk and requires a completely different protocol than a clean-water leak. A DIY approach to sewage cleanup puts household members at real risk of exposure.
Containment goes up immediately to keep contaminated water from spreading to unaffected areas of the property.

PPE compliance isn't optional on our Utica, MI sewage jobs, it's standard procedure.
Our Utica, MI disinfection process uses compliant, registered products rather than generic household cleaner.
Porous materials that contacted blackwater are disposed of according to regulatory guidelines, not just thrown in a regular dumpster.
We prioritize protecting occupants of the Utica, MI property over speed, given the health risk involved.
