NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
A sewage backup doesn’t have to ruin your week or your wallet. When we’re done, you’ll have a completely sanitized space that’s safe for your family to use again.
No lingering odors. No health hazards lurking in corners. No wondering if the job was done right.
You get back to normal life while we handle the mess, the paperwork, and the insurance coordination. That’s what professional sewage cleanup actually looks like.
We’ve been cleaning up sewage emergencies across New York for years. We serve Nassau County, Suffolk County, and all five boroughs with the same approach: get there fast, do it right, and don’t leave until it’s completely restored.
Our technicians know New York’s older plumbing systems, basement layouts, and the specific challenges that come with urban sewage backups. We’re not learning on your property.
When other companies say they’re “available,” we’re actually answering the phone at 2 AM on a Sunday. That’s the difference between claiming 24/7 service and actually providing it.
First, we assess everything. Not just the obvious mess, but potential contamination spread, structural concerns, and health hazards you might not see. This tells us exactly what equipment to bring and how to approach your specific situation.
Next comes extraction and removal. We use truck-mounted units that can handle serious volume, plus specialized equipment for contaminated materials. Everything gets removed properly – no shortcuts that leave problems behind.
Finally, sanitization and drying. We don’t just clean surfaces; we eliminate bacteria and viruses at the source, then use professional-grade air movers and dehumidifiers to prevent mold growth. The space gets completely dried and restored to safe conditions.

Your sewage cleanup includes water extraction using powerful pumps and vacuums, structural drying to prevent mold growth, complete deodorization with specialized treatments, and minor repairs for backup-related damage.
In New York, sewage backups often happen during heavy rains when the city’s aging infrastructure gets overwhelmed. Basement backups are especially common in older neighborhoods where combined sewer systems can’t handle the volume. We understand these local patterns and prepare accordingly.
We also handle the insurance documentation and billing directly with your carrier. You shouldn’t have to become an expert in sewage cleanup claims while dealing with the actual emergency.
We provide true 24/7 emergency response across all five New York boroughs, Nassau County, and Suffolk County. Most calls get a response within an hour, even during nights and weekends.
Time matters with sewage backups because contamination spreads quickly, and the longer raw sewage sits, the more damage it causes to your property. We keep crews and equipment staged throughout the region specifically for these emergencies.
When you call, you’re talking to our dispatch team who can immediately send the nearest available crew to your location. No waiting until business hours or getting transferred to an answering service.
Raw sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause serious illness through skin contact, inhalation, or accidental ingestion. E. coli, hepatitis, and salmonella are common concerns.
We eliminate these health hazards through complete sanitization using EPA-approved disinfectants and antimicrobial treatments. Every surface that contacted sewage gets properly treated, not just wiped down.
Our technicians wear full protective equipment and follow strict safety protocols to prevent cross-contamination. We also test the air quality and moisture levels to ensure your space is truly safe before we consider the job complete.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover sudden sewage backups, but coverage varies depending on the cause and your specific policy terms. We work directly with insurance companies and can often bill them directly.
We document everything thoroughly with photos, moisture readings, and detailed reports that insurance adjusters need for claims processing. This documentation often makes the difference between a covered claim and a denied one.
Before starting work, we can review your policy and explain what’s typically covered versus what might be out-of-pocket. We’ve worked with every major carrier and understand how to present claims for the best outcome.
Mold prevention starts with complete moisture removal using professional-grade dehumidifiers and air movers. We don’t just dry surfaces; we eliminate moisture from inside walls, under flooring, and in other hidden areas where mold typically starts.
We monitor moisture levels with specialized meters throughout the drying process. Areas must reach specific dryness standards before we consider them safe. This usually takes 3-5 days depending on the extent of water damage.
Antimicrobial treatments applied during sanitization also help prevent mold growth by eliminating the organic matter that feeds mold colonies. Combined with proper drying, this creates an environment where mold simply can’t establish itself.
DIY sewage cleanup typically misses hidden contamination and doesn’t address structural moisture that leads to mold problems later. Most homeowners also lack the protective equipment needed to safely handle raw sewage.
Professional restoration includes specialized extraction equipment that removes sewage from carpets, padding, and subflooring that regular shop vacuums can’t handle. We also have truck-mounted units for serious volume that household equipment simply can’t match.
The biggest difference is in sanitization and testing. We use EPA-approved antimicrobials and verify that areas are actually safe, not just clean-looking. Many DIY attempts result in recurring odors and contamination issues that require professional remediation anyway.
Sewage cleanup costs depend on the affected area size, contamination level, and required restoration work. Small bathroom backups typically cost less than whole-basement flooding with structural damage.
Most insurance-covered jobs range from $3,000 to $8,000 for typical residential backups, but extensive damage can cost more. We provide detailed estimates before starting work so you know exactly what to expect.
We offer direct insurance billing when possible, which means you only pay your deductible upfront. For non-covered situations, we work with customers on payment plans because sewage cleanup can’t wait for perfect financial timing.
