Our goal is to restore your property to a safe, habitable condition, free from the hazards of sewage contamination.

Common Causes of Sewage Leaks and Overflows

Sewage leaks and overflows can occur unexpectedly, often leading to significant damage if not addressed quickly. Understanding the common causes of sewage issues can help you identify potential risks before they escalate. Here are some of the most frequent culprits:

  • Blocked Drains: Blockages in your drainage system can cause water to back up and overflow. Common blockages include grease build-up, tree roots infiltrating pipes, and foreign objects being flushed down toilets or drains.
  • Broken or Cracked Sewer Lines: Age, ground shifts, or external pressure can cause sewer lines to crack or break, allowing sewage to leak into the surrounding area.
  • Heavy Rainfall and Flooding: Intense storms or heavy rainfall can overwhelm sewer systems, particularly in areas with outdated or poorly maintained infrastructure.
  • Clogged Sewer Vents: Sewer vents allow air to flow freely through your plumbing system, helping to regulate pressure. If these vents become clogged with debris or ice, pressure builds up in the pipes, potentially causing sewage to back up and overflow.
  • Faulty or Overloaded Septic Systems: Septic systems can become overwhelmed if they are not regularly maintained, or if the tank becomes too full.
  • Tree Root Intrusion: Trees with invasive root systems can damage your sewer lines. As roots grow, they can infiltrate and crack pipes, blocking the flow of sewage and causing leaks.

Identifying the signs of sewage problems early on and taking immediate action can prevent costly repairs and minimise the health risks associated with sewage backups.

Our Comprehensive Sewage Cleanup Process

At Flood Services Australia, we take a thorough and systematic approach to sewage cleanup to ensure that your property is safe and fully restored. Here’s how we handle the situation:

  • Immediate Response and Safety: Upon receiving your call, our team is dispatched quickly to your location. Our first priority is to ensure the safety of everyone in your property. We will advise you to evacuate the area if necessary, and we’ll take immediate steps to isolate the affected area to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Water Extraction and Waste Removal: Once it’s safe to proceed, our team will begin removing any standing water and waste using advanced water extraction equipment. This will prevent further contamination and minimise the damage.
  • Assessment of the Damage: After all standing sewage water is removed, we assess the full extent of the damage. We identify all areas affected by sewage contamination, including floors, walls, furniture, and carpets. This helps us plan the appropriate restoration procedures.
  • Decontamination and Disinfection: Sewage water contains harmful pathogens, and it’s essential that all affected areas are disinfected properly. Using industrial-grade cleaning agents, we sanitize all impacted surfaces, ensuring that harmful bacteria and pathogens are removed completely.
  • Drying and Dehumidification: Our restoration team uses state-of-the-art drying equipment to remove any remaining moisture. Dehumidifiers are placed strategically to prevent further damage and to eliminate the conditions that can lead to mould and mildew growth.
  • Odour Control: Sewage cleanup often leaves behind unpleasant odours. Our team will treat affected areas with specialised odour neutralisers to remove any lingering smells, ensuring that your home or business smells fresh and clean.
  • Final Inspection and Restoration: Once all cleaning and drying procedures are complete, our team conducts a final inspection to ensure that your property is safe, clean, and dry. We also check for any signs of damage that may require further restoration or repairs, such as structural damage or mould growth.

Our comprehensive sewage cleanup process ensures that every step is handled with the highest level of care and expertise. We prioritise your safety and the integrity of your property, using advanced equipment and techniques to restore your space quickly and efficiently.
