Sewage backup is Category 3 blackwater, which means it carries real health risk and requires a completely different protocol than a clean-water leak. Attempting to clean up blackwater without proper protective gear is a genuine health hazard, not just an inconvenience.
EPA-registered antimicrobial treatment and compliant disposal of contaminated materials are standard on every Sewage Cleanup job we run in Tempe, AZ.

We follow strict biohazard protocol on every Sewage Cleanup call, treating even a small backup with full precaution.
Our Tempe, AZ disinfection process uses compliant, registered products rather than generic household cleaner.

Health and safety drive our containment approach on every sewage call.
Here's the full scope of a Tempe sewage backup response.

Blackwater extraction follows Category 3 protocol from the first pump-down.
Every technician on-site wears full protective gear rated for blackwater exposure.
Anything that can't be fully disinfected gets removed and disposed of properly, not reused.
Disinfection follows the same standard regardless of how small the backup appeared initially.
Pathogen control continues until air and surface testing confirm the space is safe.
We verify air quality after cleanup to confirm the space is safe for reoccupation.
Every sewage call gets routed with full PPE crews from the start.
A biohazard-trained technician arrives with full PPE and containment materials already loaded.
A biohazard assessment and written quote come before any extraction starts.
The file doesn't close until pathogen and odor control are confirmed complete.
