NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
Nobody plans for sewage to back up into their home. When it happens, you’re not just dealing with a disgusting mess—you’re facing serious health dangers and the clock is ticking on property damage.
Here’s what you get when we’re finished: a completely sanitized space that’s safe for your family. No contamination hiding anywhere. No lingering smells that remind you this ever happened. No wondering if something was missed.
Your home goes back to being exactly what it should be—a clean, healthy place where your family can live without worry. That’s not just cleanup. That’s complete restoration.
We’ve handled sewage emergencies throughout Old Mastic and Suffolk County for years. We know exactly what homeowners here are up against.
Your area deals with aging infrastructure that can’t always handle heavy storms. Tree roots work their way into older sewer lines. When those nor’easters hit, systems get overwhelmed and sewage ends up where it doesn’t belong—in your basement.
We’ve cleaned up after every type of backup you can imagine in neighborhoods just like yours. When you call us, you’re getting a team that understands both the technical side of sewage cleanup and the real-world challenges of living in Old Mastic.
We start with a complete assessment. Our team figures out what caused the backup, how far contamination spread, and what needs to be done to make your space safe again. No guessing—we know exactly what we’re dealing with before we start.
Then comes the heavy lifting. Industrial water extraction equipment removes every drop of contaminated water. We’re not talking about a wet-dry vacuum here—our truck-mounted units can pull thousands of gallons and reach places you didn’t even know were affected.
The final step is thorough sanitization and structural drying. Every surface gets treated with hospital-grade disinfectants. Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers run until moisture levels are completely back to normal. We don’t leave until your space is completely safe and dry.

Your sewage cleanup covers water extraction, structural drying, complete deodorization, and sewage backup repairs needed to restore your property. We handle the entire job from emergency response to final walkthrough.
Old Mastic homes often have finished basements, and sewage backups here frequently affect living spaces, not just utility areas. We know how to protect unaffected areas while we work and how to restore finished spaces to their original condition.
We also work directly with your insurance company. Most Old Mastic residents tell us the direct billing process saves them significant hassle during an already stressful situation. One call gets you professional cleanup and streamlined insurance handling.
We respond 24/7 and typically arrive within an hour. With sewage backups, every minute counts—contaminated water creates more health risks and property damage the longer it sits.
Our response trucks carry everything needed to start water extraction immediately. We don’t waste time going back for equipment or waiting for supplies. The faster we can remove contaminated water, the less damage you’ll have and the lower your restoration costs will be.
This quick response is especially important in Old Mastic, where many homes have finished basements that can suffer extensive damage if sewage isn’t removed quickly.
Sewage water contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that make it much more hazardous than clean water damage. This contaminated “black water” requires specialized protective equipment, extraction methods, and disinfection processes.
We can’t just dry everything out like we would with a burst pipe. Every surface that contacted sewage must be properly sanitized or completely removed. Our technicians wear full protective gear and use EPA-approved disinfectants to eliminate all health hazards.
The restoration process is also more extensive because we have to ensure no trace of contamination remains anywhere in your property. It’s not just about removing water—it’s about making your home completely safe again.
Coverage varies by policy, but many standard homeowner’s policies don’t automatically include sewer backup coverage—you often need to add it specifically. However, if you do have coverage, it typically includes professional cleanup services.
We work with insurance companies regularly and can help you understand what’s covered under your specific policy. We handle all the documentation and can often bill your insurer directly, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket and wait for reimbursement.
If you’re unsure about coverage, we can usually start the cleanup work immediately and sort out billing details while we’re restoring your property. Your safety and property protection can’t wait for insurance paperwork.
Absolutely not. Raw sewage contains deadly bacteria like E. coli, salmonella, and hepatitis that can cause severe illness or death from exposure. This isn’t a job for household cleaning supplies and good intentions.
Professional sewage cleanup requires specialized extraction equipment, protective gear, and knowledge of proper disinfection procedures. Without the right tools and training, you risk spreading contamination throughout your home, incomplete cleaning that leads to mold growth, and serious health consequences for your family.
The cost of professional cleanup is typically far less than dealing with health issues, structural damage from improper drying, or having to completely redo the work when problems develop later.
Mold prevention starts with complete water extraction and thorough structural drying, which is especially critical in Long Island’s humid climate. We use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to remove all moisture from affected materials, including inside wall cavities and subfloor areas where humidity can linger.
We apply antimicrobial treatments to all affected surfaces and continuously monitor moisture levels throughout the drying process. Any materials that can’t be properly cleaned and dried—like soaked drywall, insulation, or carpet padding—get removed entirely rather than risk future mold growth.
Our drying process typically takes 3-5 days, and we don’t consider the job complete until moisture readings return to normal levels. This thorough approach prevents the conditions mold needs to establish itself in your home.
Keep everyone away from the contaminated area immediately—sewage poses serious health risks that can affect your family within minutes of exposure. Don’t try to clean anything or walk through contaminated water without proper protection.
Turn off electricity to the affected area if you can safely reach the breaker from outside the contaminated zone. Don’t flush toilets or run water anywhere in your home, as this can worsen the backup and spread contamination.
Call us right now—don’t wait to see if it gets better or try to handle it yourself first. The sooner we start water extraction, the less damage you’ll have and the faster you’ll get your home back. Take photos for insurance if you can do so safely, but your immediate priority should be getting professional help on the way.
