Sewage Backup 

Sewage backup is not only a big inconvenience and an aesthetic nightmare, but also a health concern. The biohazardous material found in the sewage contains bacteria that will spread if left untreated. 

The tell-tale signs of sewage backup include a foul smell coming from drains or toilets, a gurgling sound and water backing up. When any of these signs are noticed, it is important to call a professional right away to mitigate the problem. 

Bloodborne Pathogens 

Pathogenic substances are a type of biohazardous waste that includes bodily fluids or body tissue. While these substances can be left behind from something as inconsequential as a minor cut, they can also result from trauma, crime or death. 

If you know there are pathogens present, it is important to steer clear and let the professionals do the work. SERVPRO technicians utilize known best practices for handling these materials and are aided by industry-leading equipment and technology to maintain safety.
