Sewage damage cleanup

Sewer system backups are big responsibilities when it contaminates your living environment. The water that comes out from sewer backups is dirty and contaminated with all kinds of bad bacteria, which has the potential to be harmful to human health.

Once this type of water is released, a proper cleanup and disinfection, especially for unreachable areas, is required to bring your place back to safety. Precautions are also required to be able to keep everyone safe. It’s important to remember that when you have this type of problem you should:

• Keep all your family members away from the affected area.
• If for any reason you need to touch a surface that is infected with sewer water, always remember to use gloves and properly disinfect your hands before touching a non-infected living area.
• Your pets can also be affected by the bacteria that is released. Make sure to keep them away from the area entirely.
• Have your sewer line video-inspected after the flood; you need to make sure that the line is reusable or doesn’t create another flood.

Not only are these precautions required, the correct use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and proper protocols are also very important to bring your house back to safety.

Sewage and drain flood water health risks:

People can be affected by sewage and drain floods, not only the place is contaminated but some types of water can also be a threat to human health.

Raw sewage water presents a number of gases that when inhaled can be very harmful to our health, like for example: Hydrogen sulfite, Carbon dioxide, Methane and Chlorine. People exposed to those gases can have sickness, disorientation and even death (it’s always important to remember, the use of PPE is obligatory before dealing with any sewer water).

Pathogenic organisms are also found in sewer water. Those inside our body are harmless but when they are expelled and ingested again it can become a problem. When ingested by a human, those pathogenic organisms can cause diseases and be very harmful to human health.

Example of pathogenic organisms:

E-coli

Salmonella

Campylobacter

Prevention is always the best way to avoid such situations. Remember to always have your house inspected and if a flood occurs contact a professional to help you solve the problem.
