Sewage Damage Emergency Tips

Raw sewage and floodwaters contain bacteria and other microorganisms, which are extremely hazardous to human health. These can be transmitted by touching contaminated items or by tracking them into uncontaminated areas on shoes. Absorbent materials such as carpeting and drywall may not be restorable after direct contact with sewage-contaminated or flood-contaminated water. If your house is flooded with sewage-contaminated water, cleanup should begin as soon as possible to reduce the risk of exposure to sewage.

Sewage Damage Do's

• Always wear rubber gloves and avoid skin contact with the water or with any wet materials. (It’s better to stay out of the area completely.)
• Wash your hands thoroughly and regularly to avoid infections.
• Keep children away from contaminated area! They are especially vulnerable.
• CALL ALL-PRO SERVICES IMMEDIATELY at (785) 842-1402

Sewage Damage Don'ts

• Do not track contaminated material into undamaged areas.
• Do not attempt to decontaminate surfaces with sprays and other over-the-counter germicidal products, which may not fully disinfect contaminated surfaces.
