Frequently asked questions
Clear Answers Before You Connect.
Can I clean a sewage backup with household bleach?
Sewage cleanup can require containment, removal, cleaning, disinfection, drying, and disposal procedures beyond applying a single product. Avoid exposure and obtain qualified guidance.
Should contaminated carpet be removed?

Can fans be used before cleanup?
Uncontrolled air movement may spread aerosols or contaminants. Follow qualified provider instructions.
