"They treated our sewage backup like the serious situation it was, full suits and everything, not a quick mop job." — Wanda C.
"Appreciated that they explained exactly what would need to be thrown away and why, rather than just guessing." — Desmond K.
"The smell was completely gone by the time they finished, not just masked with an air freshener." — Alina M.
Blackwater contamination poses real health risk, unlike clean-water leaks, which is why it needs a different protocol.
Porous materials that contacted blackwater usually need to be removed and disposed of, since they can't be fully disinfected.
Our disinfection products meet EPA-registered standards for Category 3 water, not generic cleaner.
We verify air quality and complete surface disinfection checks before signing off.
We recommend checking your specific policy, and we'll support the claim with proper documentation either way.
Immediately — the longer contaminated water sits, the further bacteria and odor can spread into surrounding materials.
If your property is in or near Rice, a crew can typically respond the same day.
