Sewage backup is Category 3 blackwater, which means it carries real health risk and requires a completely different protocol than a clean-water leak. A DIY approach to sewage cleanup puts household members at real risk of exposure.

PPE compliance isn't optional on our South Prairie, WA sewage jobs, it's standard procedure.
Our South Prairie, WA disinfection process uses compliant, registered products rather than generic household cleaner.

Anything that can't be fully disinfected gets removed and disposed of properly, not reused.

Every sewage call gets routed with full PPE crews from the start.
Containment barriers and PPE are standard equipment for every dispatch.
