Sewage Cleanup Services for Three Way, TN Homes and Businesses
Sewage cleanup is the removal of raw sewage and everything it soaked into, followed by cleaning and disinfection of the affected area. Because sewage carries bacteria and viruses, it is handled as a biohazard.
For sewer backups in Three Way, you need more than pumping out water. Call Three Way Biohazard Cleanup Help and the crew pulls soaked flooring and drywall, treats framing and subfloor, and deals with the odor at its source in your Madison County property.
Three Way typically receives about 55 inches of rain a year, and heavy storms can overwhelm sewers and send wastewater up through drains. Even without a major flood, Madison County has a Relatively Low river flood risk rating from FEMA. Storm runoff can enter sewers and cause backups into basements and low floors.
A typical sewage & biohazard cleanup job includes:
- Containment and negative air to keep contamination out of unaffected rooms
- Odor removal and deodorizing after the sewage has been taken out
- Bagging and proper disposal of contaminated materials as hazardous waste
- Sanitizing after sewage reaches concrete slabs, tile grout and unfinished basement walls
- Disinfection of hard surfaces, framing and subfloors with EPA-registered products

Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Three Way, TN Property Owners
What illnesses can raw sewage cause?
Sewage can carry germs such as E. coli, norovirus, hepatitis A and Giardia. They spread through skin contact, splashes and hand to mouth contact. Washing well and wearing protection reduce the risk, but removal by a crew reduces it most.
What should I do right after a sewage backup?
Keep everyone out of the area, including pets, and stop using sinks, tubs and toilets that feed the pipe. Turn off power to wet areas only if it is safe. Then call a cleanup team and your insurer, and take photos before anything is moved.
Can sewage backup make me sick even after it is cleaned up?
If the cleanup missed contaminated materials, germs and odor can linger. That is why crews remove porous materials, disinfect every surface they touched and inspect the work. Thorough removal is what lowers the risk.
Do sewage cleanup companies handle commercial properties?
Yes. Commercial sewage cleanup in restaurants, offices, shops and apartment buildings follows the same biohazard steps, with added attention to keeping part of the building usable and to documentation for managers and insurers.
Do plumbers clean up sewage?
Plumbers usually clear the blockage or repair the pipe, but most do not remove contaminated materials or disinfect the space. A sewage cleanup company picks up where the plumber stops, and the two jobs often happen in sequence.
What if sewage backs up through a shower or tub?
Treat it as raw sewage. Keep people out of the bathroom, stop using the fixture and call for cleanup. The liquid can reach under flooring and into walls, so a crew checks beyond the visible puddle.
