Where Contamination Comes From: Sewage Cleanup Sanitization Basics

Ducts That Took on Water

Floor ducts that filled with water collect silt and moisture and can spread odor until they are cleaned.

Sewer Backups

A blocked sewer pipe can push sewage up through floor drains, toilets and tubs, contaminating every surface it reaches.

Floodwater From Outside

Water that flows in from yards and streets carries soil, chemicals and bacteria into the home.

Water Left Too Long

Even clean water can grow bacteria and mold if it sits for a few days before drying starts.

FAQ: Cleaning and Disinfecting After a Leak or Flood

Will odor removal and sanitization get rid of the smell?

Yes, once the soaked materials are removed and surfaces are cleaned, disinfected and dried. Air scrubbers handle what lingers in the air.

Can I stay home during sewage cleanup sanitization?

Often, if the affected area is closed off. People with health problems, infants and older adults may want to stay elsewhere during sewage cleanup.

Does insurance pay for disinfection after flooding?

It often does when the water loss itself is covered. Sewage backups may need a separate endorsement. Your insurer decides.

Is kitchen disinfection after leaks needed after a dishwasher leak?

Drain water from a dishwasher contains food waste. The cabinet base and floor should be cleaned and dried, and disinfected if water sat for long.

Is bleach enough for disinfection after flooding?

Bleach works only on clean, hard surfaces and cannot clean porous materials. Removing soaked items and cleaning surfaces come first.
