Green Island Group has been handling sewage emergencies across Nassau County for years. We understand the unique challenges Long Island homeowners face, from aging infrastructure to the area’s specific environmental conditions.
Our certified technicians know Planetarium and the surrounding Nassau County communities. We’ve restored hundreds of homes from sewage backups, and we understand exactly what needs to happen to get your life back to normal.
When other companies cut corners, we follow every safety protocol and environmental regulation to ensure the job gets done right.
First, we secure the area and assess the full extent of contamination. Our team identifies all affected areas, including hidden moisture that could cause problems later.
Next comes water extraction using powerful truck-mounted pumps and specialized vacuums designed for sewage removal. We remove every drop of contaminated water from your property.
Then we begin structural drying with industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers. This prevents mold growth and ensures all affected materials are completely dried. Finally, we sanitize and deodorize every surface, eliminating bacteria and restoring your home to a safe, livable condition.

Raw sewage contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause serious illness. E. coli, salmonella, and hepatitis are just some of the pathogens commonly found in sewage water.
These contaminants become airborne and can spread throughout your home, contaminating surfaces you might not even realize were affected. Children and elderly family members are particularly vulnerable to sewage-related health issues.
Professional cleanup eliminates these health hazards completely. We use EPA-approved disinfectants and follow strict safety protocols to ensure every contaminated surface gets properly sanitized.

Mold prevention starts with immediate water extraction and thorough structural drying. We use industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to remove all moisture from affected materials within 24-48 hours.
Our moisture detection equipment identifies hidden water in wall cavities, under flooring, and in other areas that aren’t immediately visible. We monitor humidity levels throughout the drying process to ensure complete moisture removal.
Any materials that can’t be properly dried or sanitized get removed and replaced. This includes drywall, insulation, and flooring that has absorbed sewage water. Prevention is always more cost-effective than mold remediation later.

The process starts with containment to prevent contamination from spreading to unaffected areas. We then remove all sewage water and contaminated materials, followed by thorough cleaning and disinfection of all salvageable items.
Air scrubbers remove airborne contaminants while industrial fans and dehumidifiers dry the structure. Finally, we apply antimicrobial treatments and deodorizers to eliminate any remaining bacteria and odors.
Sewage contains dangerous pathogens that require specialized equipment and safety protocols to handle safely. Without proper protective gear and training, you risk serious illness from exposure to contaminated materials.
DIY cleanup often misses hidden contamination in wall cavities, under flooring, and in HVAC systems. This leads to mold growth and ongoing health hazards that are much more expensive to address later.
Professional equipment like truck-mounted extractors and industrial drying systems can’t be rented from hardware stores. Inadequate drying leads to structural damage and mold problems that end up costing significantly more than professional cleanup from the start.
