Sewage Cleanup Service aims to restore properties affected by sewage backup to pre-loss conditions, minimizing health hazards and structural damage. Professional cleanup and disinfection ensure thorough removal of contaminants, eliminating the risks of waterborne illnesses and further deterioration.

### What Kills Sewage Bacteria?

Disinfecting sewage-contaminated areas requires effective antimicrobial agents that can eliminate bacteria. Common disinfectants utilized include:

– **Chlorine Bleach:** A powerful oxidizing agent that kills bacteria by disrupting their cell walls.
– **Hydrogen Peroxide:** An oxidizing agent that releases free radicals, damaging bacterial DNA and cell membranes.
– **Quaternary Ammonium Compounds:** Antibacterial agents that interfere with bacterial metabolism and cause cell membrane rupture.
– **Phenolic Compounds:** Disinfectants that coagulate bacterial proteins, leading to cell death.
– **Ultraviolet Radiation:** High-energy ultraviolet light damages bacterial DNA, preventing their reproduction.

### Sewage Cleanup and Disinfection Process

1. **Removal of Sewage Water:** Water is extracted using pumps, vacuums, and extraction equipment.
2. **Cleaning and Disinfection:** Affected surfaces are cleaned using detergents and disinfectants to eliminate bacteria.
3. **Debris Removal:** Debris, contaminated materials, and belongings are removed and disposed of properly.
4. **Drying and Deodorization:** Affected areas are dried using air movers and dehumidifiers, while odor-control products are employed to eliminate foul smells.
5. **Structural Repairs:** If necessary, structural repairs are made to restore the property to its pre-loss condition.
