Sewage Cleanup and Black Water Restoration in Naples

Fast, Careful Help for Naples Property Owners

Sewage backups are Category 3 water, the most contaminated type. Sewage cleanup needs protective equipment, removal of contaminated materials and thorough sanitizing.

Health Risks

Sewage can carry bacteria and viruses. Keep children and pets away and avoid touching affected areas.

Septic and Sewer Backups

Some Naples-area homes, especially in Golden Gate Estates and older neighborhoods, use septic systems, while others connect to municipal sewer. Heavy rain can overwhelm both, pushing waste back through floor drains, tubs and toilets. Tree roots, grease buildup and collapsed lines can also cause backups.

Because sewage is Category 3 water, porous materials it touched, such as carpet, pad, drywall and insulation, are generally removed rather than dried. Hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, and the area is dried and deodorized. A plumber or septic company should fix the cause before restoration is completed. See categories of water damage.

Keep Everyone Safe

Avoid contact with sewage, keep children and pets away, and wash hands thoroughly if exposed. Do not use household vacuums or fans on sewage-affected areas, since they can spread contamination.
