A sewer back-up can cause waste and toxic substances to spill into your basement, crawlspace, or bathrooms. Many people lose sight of the fact that sewage water isn’t just a smelly substance, in many cases it can carry diseases.
The EPA states that commonly found substances in sewage back-ups include tetanus, E-coli, Hepatitis-A, and other pathogens. These can be deadly viruses if contracted. It’s why any restoration contractor will tell you that when it comes to black water losses like these, it’s always best to have the sewage damage cleanup process done by a professional.

There can be a lot of confusion when it comes to the professional water mitigation process. That confusion can cause you stress and can make the situation seem chaotic. So for many people, actually understanding what they can expect helps relieve some of the stress and make them more at ease about the work done by their water damage contractor.
Here is a video we’ve created that explains how the process typically works:
When water damage happens, responding quickly isn’t just ideal, it’s imperative. There are 2 main things that can or will happen if you don’t have the loss mitigated immediately by a professional St. Louis water damage company.
1. Your structure can collapse
It doesn’t take a lot of moisture to weigh down drywall or weaken the supporting structures of your property. If you have a wet ceiling, it could be the case that ceiling comes crashing down. Walls can even give way if they become weak enough. These are just some of the things that can happen that put your safety at risk.
There’s really no ‘ifs’ about this one. Given enough time, when your property remains wet . So how long does that take? About 2 days. Is that a lot sooner than you expected? For most people, they’re shocked to find out that while they’ve waited for their insurance company to react to the loss they already have black mold damage that will need to remediated.
Typically we’ll suggest you call in your insurer on day 2. When we get to the property we take a complete inventory of the property and document each section of the home that is damaged, including all furnitures and household possessions, as well as the source of the water damage. There won’t be any question for your adjuster in regards to the cause of the loss, not the damage done.
Your insurance adjuster’s job isn’t to tell you what they will pay for. It’s their job to ensure that every task completed to restore your home was necessary and then settle payment for those services. That means you’ll have to rely heavily on the St Louis water damage contractor you hire to make sure every service provided is necessary and that they can clearly communicate that to the insurance company. If there are concerns on the insurer’s part, it’s our job to answer to those concerns.
You don’t need to go to bat against your insurer alone. In fact, you should always have someone on your corner that understands how they operate and has your best interests at heart. That’s us!
