South Pacific Environmental
Sewer backups are never fun to experience for any property owner. They can be messy and expensive to clean; however, you should never handle the cleanup process yourself due to the number of bacteria and pathogens contained within the water. In addition, if the water is not removed properly, your building materials can suffer significant damage from the remaining wastewater.
If you have experienced a sewer backup on your property, don’t hesitate to call South Pacific Environmental for emergency sewer cleanup services in Loto, MT. Our technicians are available 24/7 and will arrive immediately to prevent the damage from spreading and remove the sewage as quickly as possible. We will also have the contaminated area safely returned to its original condition.
Damage Caused by Sewage Contamination
When sewage water affects a particular area, it will spread to penetrate the building materials and contaminate other areas of the property. That is why South Pacific Environmental considers all sewer cleanup jobs emergencies. In addition, sewage water also poses a severe threat to the health and safety of everyone residing on the property as it contains dangerous bacteria and pathogens from the urine, feces, and other biohazards.
Unfortunately, there are also a number of causes of sewer backups, including flushing large objects down the drain to clog the pipe. When the water is not able to flow past the object, the applied pressure will push it in the opposite direction to overflow the drain and create a dangerous mess.
Other cases involve flooding basements because the water has penetrated through the floor or walls from an underground pipe burst. If a tree root wraps around the sewer pipe, too much pressure will cause it to break and allow water to flow into the foundation and flood the basement, contaminating all building materials and furnishings.
Cleanup of Sewage Backups
Sewer backups are regarded as emergencies for all properties and South Pacific Environmental understands the harmful effects caused by the contaminated water. This is why we are available 24/7 and will arrive right away to extract the water and decontaminate the affected areas with powerful but safe equipment and products. Overall, we will ensure that the area provides a safe and clean environment once again.
The following procedures are included in our sewage cleanup services:
- Open Communication and 24/7 Availability:South Pacific Environmental is available 24/7 and will be available to answer all of your questions throughout the service as well as advise you of what you can do to speed up the drying process.
- Initial Inspection:Upon arrival, our technicians will first inspect the area and conduct a walkthrough of the area to identify any other contaminated surfaces. Sometimes the sewage water can penetrate porous surfaces and leak into others.
- Waste Removal and Disinfection:Our technicians will then use protective equipment and extract all sewage water, followed by applying powerful cleaning products to decontaminate non-porous surfaces. All soiled drywall will then be removed and replacements will be installed afterward.
- Post-Restoration:After the area has been fully decontaminated, it is important to ensure that mold does not grow on the drying surfaces in the future. To prevent this from happening, allow as much airflow to the air as possible by running your air-conditioning unit, dehumidifier, or opening your window.
Sewage backups can cause many problems for property owners, however, handling them yourself or postponing treatment will only lead to more damage in the future. You can even become horribly sick after having contact with the harmful bacteria and pathogens in the water. Instead, contact a professional to handle the cleanup job and restore the area.

"I had a sky light leak causing my whole upstairs to flood, of course this was a Sunday but Gary answered the phone and within the hour, was on the job. I highly recommend this company."

"For capable, communicative, and confidence-instilling service, you can do no better than Gary Ashcraft when you have a frozen-pipe home disaster. Gary came out on Christmas day for us, to place fans and dehumidifiers. His prompt mitigation of the flood in our dining room/kitchen prevented mold from developing, and saved our flooring. He kept us apprised of the process and progress, set up the required sub-contractor work, assuaged our worry, and appropriately set our expectations."
