At Premier Property Restoration, we emphasize the importance of engaging reputable sewage cleanup experts to accurately assess the extent of sewage damage. Our team liaises directly with your insurance company, conducting thorough assessments and documentation to ensure you receive the maximum coverage with minimal out-of-pocket expenses. 

On average, sewage cleanup costs range between $7 to $14 per square foot, varying depending on the sewage volume, extent of damage, and the necessity for reconstruction, among other factors. Early intervention by Premier Property Restoration can significantly reduce overall damage and associated costs, underscoring the importance of prompt action for emergency cleanup services.

It's imperative to understand that raw sewage spillage poses severe health risks and should never be addressed without professional assistance. Known as "black water" or category 3 water damage, sewage contains harmful pathogens that demand a specialized cleanup process. 

When facing sewage backup, Premier Property Restoration offers expert sewage cleanup procedures, including:

1. Initial Assessment and Safety Measures:  Our team evaluates the spill's extent and impacted materials, implements necessary safety protocols with professional PPE, and isolates the area.
2. Removal of Sewage and Contaminated Materials:  Using advanced equipment, all sewage and contaminated porous materials are safely removed and disposed of.
3. Cleaning and Sanitizing:  Surfaces are cleaned with industrial-strength products, followed by sanitization to eliminate pathogens, safeguarding the area's safety.
4. Drying and Dehumidifying :  Advanced tools are employed to extract moisture and purify the air, which are essential steps in preventing mold growth and further contamination.
5. Restoration and Final Inspection:  Necessary repairs and reconstructions are meticulously conducted, ensuring the property's return to its pre-damage condition.

Knowing the common triggers of sewage backup can help in prevention and preparedness:

1. Blockages in Sewer Lines:  Accumulation of debris, grease, or foreign objects can lead to clogs.
2. Tree Root Intrusion:  Tree roots can infiltrate and obstruct sewer pipes over time.
3. Aging Infrastructure:  Deterioration, cracks, or collapse in older sewer systems necessitates regular upkeep.
4. Heavy Rainfall and Flooding:  Excess water can overwhelm sewer systems, leading to backups.
5. Structural Damage:  Physical damage to sewer pipes can occur due to various factors like soil settlement or earthquakes.
6. Inadequate Septic System Maintenance:  Neglecting septic system upkeep can cause backups.
