Sewage restoration is the work of returning a space to safe, usable condition after a backup. It starts with removing contamination, and repairs and rebuilding only follow once the area is clean.

Nassau Bay typically receives about 60 inches of rain a year, and heavy storms can overwhelm sewers and send wastewater up through drains. About 72% of homes in Nassau Bay were built before 1980, and older clay or cast iron sewer pipes crack and clog with roots over time.
The work often covers:
- Commercial sewage cleanup in restaurants, offices, shops and apartment buildings
- Septic tank and lift station overflow cleanup inside and around buildings
- Bagging and proper disposal of contaminated materials as hazardous waste
- Containment and negative air to keep contamination out of unaffected rooms
- Tear-out of sewage-soaked carpet, padding, drywall, baseboards and insulation

Sewer Backup Questions Answered for Nassau Bay, TX
Can I clean sewage myself?
A very small spill on a hard floor can be handled with gloves, boots, eye protection and a disinfectant used by label directions. Anything that reached carpet, drywall or a large area needs professional cleanup, because hidden contamination is hard to see.
What if the sewage came from a septic tank?
A septic overflow is cleaned as raw sewage, both inside any affected building and on nearby ground. Contaminated soil, materials and surfaces are handled and disinfected. A septic service may also need to empty or repair the tank.
Who pays for sewage cleanup, the landlord or the tenant?
It depends on the cause, the lease and local law. A landlord's policy may cover the building, while a renter's policy may cover belongings. If the blockage was in a public sewer main, the city or utility may be responsible for the repair.
Can carpet be saved after a sewage backup?
Usually not. Carpet and padding soak up Category 3 water and cannot be reliably made safe, so they are cut out and discarded. Hard surfaces, sealed wood and items in closed containers can often be cleaned and kept.
How do I disinfect a basement after a sewer backup?
After the sewage and soaked materials are out, floors and walls are scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant used by label directions. Unsealed concrete can hold odor and needs extra attention. Crews often handle this step with professional equipment.
What is Category 3 water, also called black water?
Category 3 water is the most contaminated level, and sewage is the standard example. It can carry disease-causing germs and should never be cleaned with household supplies alone. Flood water that touched sewage is treated the same way.
