You’re not just dealing with a mess. Raw sewage carries dangerous bacteria that can make your family sick and cause thousands in structural damage if handled incorrectly.
When we finish, your home will be completely sanitized, deodorized, and structurally sound. No lingering contamination. No hidden moisture breeding mold. No health risks lurking in corners.
You’ll walk back into a space that feels like home again – not a biohazard zone that makes you worry about your family’s safety.
Green Island Group has been protecting North New Hyde Park families from sewage contamination for years. We understand Nassau County’s aging infrastructure and how Long Island’s unique conditions affect sewage cleanup.
We’ve handled everything from basement backups near the water table to main line failures in older neighborhoods. Each situation requires different equipment and techniques – experience you can’t fake.
Our team lives in this community. When your neighbor recommends us, it’s because we’ve proven we can handle their worst-case scenario professionally and completely.
We start with immediate containment and safety assessment. Your family’s health comes first – we establish barriers to prevent contamination spread before any cleanup begins.
Next comes complete water extraction using industrial pumps, followed by removal of contaminated materials that can’t be safely restored. We don’t gamble with your family’s health.
Then we deploy commercial-grade structural drying equipment, monitoring moisture levels until everything reaches safe standards. Finally, we sanitize every surface with EPA-approved disinfectants and eliminate odors completely using advanced deodorization technology.

Every sewage cleanup includes emergency water extraction, structural drying, complete sanitization, and professional deodorization. We also handle sewage backup repairs and manage your insurance claim from start to finish.
North New Hyde Park’s location means sewage problems often affect basements and crawl spaces where contamination can hide. We have specialized equipment for these challenging areas that general contractors can’t access properly.
Nassau County’s mix of older homes and newer developments each present unique challenges. From Union Turnpike’s residential areas to the neighborhoods closer to New Hyde Park proper, we understand how local conditions affect proper cleanup and restoration.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and typically arrive at North New Hyde Park homes within 60-90 minutes of your call. Every hour of delay with sewage contamination increases health risks and property damage exponentially.
Our emergency response includes immediate assessment, contamination containment, and beginning water extraction. We maintain emergency crews around the clock because sewage disasters don’t wait for convenient timing.
The faster we respond, the better chance we have of preventing secondary damage like mold growth, structural deterioration, and spreading contamination to unaffected areas.
Sewage cleanup requires hazmat-level protocols that regular water damage doesn’t. Raw sewage contains deadly bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause serious illness or death if handled improperly.
We follow Category 3 contamination procedures, which means complete removal of porous materials like carpet, drywall, and insulation that cannot be effectively sanitized. Our technicians wear full protective suits and use strict containment protocols.
Regular water damage can often be dried and restored. Sewage contamination requires removal, disposal, sanitization, and replacement of affected materials to guarantee your family’s safety.
Most homeowner’s policies cover sudden and accidental sewage backups, but coverage varies significantly between insurers. We work directly with insurance companies and help you maximize your coverage benefits.
We document everything with detailed photos and reports that satisfy insurance adjusters’ requirements. Our experience with Nassau County claims means we know exactly what local adjusters need to approve coverage.
Many clients pay little to nothing out-of-pocket because we handle the entire insurance process. We’ll review your policy and explain your options before starting any work.
Complete odor elimination requires destroying odor-causing molecules, not masking them. We use industrial ozone generators, hydroxyl machines, and EPA-approved antimicrobial treatments that break down contamination at the molecular level.
First, we remove all contaminated materials that trap odors. Then we treat every surface with hospital-grade disinfectants. Finally, we deploy advanced deodorization equipment that neutralizes remaining odor particles in air and on surfaces.
The deodorization process runs 24-48 hours after initial cleanup. We don’t consider the job complete until you cannot detect any trace of sewage contamination in your home.
Stop using water immediately and avoid all contact with contaminated areas. Turn off electricity to affected areas if you can reach the breaker box safely without entering contaminated zones.
Never attempt DIY cleanup – sewage contains pathogens that can kill you. Keep children and pets completely away from the area until we arrive with proper equipment.
Take photos for insurance if you can do so safely, but don’t enter contaminated areas. Ventilate if weather permits, and call us immediately for emergency response.
Most residential sewage cleanup takes 3-5 days from emergency response to final restoration, depending on contamination extent and affected square footage. Emergency extraction and containment happen within hours of our arrival.
Structural drying requires 2-3 days with commercial equipment running continuously to prevent mold growth. Final sanitization and deodorization add another day to ensure complete safety compliance.
Extensive contamination affecting multiple rooms may take longer, but we work efficiently to restore your home as quickly as possible while maintaining strict safety standards. We provide realistic timelines after initial assessment.
