Commercial Sewage Cleanup and Restoration
Protect Your Business from Extensive & Costly Damage
More than damaging your business, sewage backups and flooding can be a health hazard. Sewage and floods can contain bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that can cause disease and illness. While sewer back-ups are most commonly found in private service lines, they can also be the result of problems in the main sewer line in the street. At ServiceMaster Restore®, we have the process, the training, and the experience to not only clean up but to help eliminate bacteria and germs.

What is a sewage backup?
A sewage backup is a situation in which wastewater or sewage is flowing in the opposite direction and is backing up into a home or business, usually through a sink, toilet, or floor drain. The backup is usually caused by a blockage in the sewer line or a clogged drain. Sewage backups can cause extensive damage and can be hazardous to human health.
What Causes Sewer Backups?
There are a variety of reasons why your sewer can backup. It’s a perfectly common situation that many commercial property owners face. Some of the most common causes are:
- Soil settlement
- Misaligned joints
- Root infiltration
- Pipe collapses
- Grease buildup
- Items flushed down a drain
Flooding results when the volume of water runoff from a storm is greater than a drainage system’s capacity. This overflow of water causes flooding by overflowing into nearby areas, spilling onto roads and flooding residential, commercial and industrial areas.
When this occurs, two types of problems can result:
- The overland flow of storm water enters a property through an opening such as a door, window, or cracks in the building’s foundation.
- Heavy rains increase the water elevation in the sewer system and cause backflow through the sewer pipeline and into a business.
