Why sewage needs professional handling

Sewage contains bacteria, viruses, parasites and other contaminants that can make people seriously ill. When it backs up through a toilet, floor drain or tub, it contaminates every porous material it touches. Carpet, pad, drywall, insulation and upholstered furniture absorb it, and cleaning those materials to a safe level is usually not possible.

Mold PE Services approaches every sewage job in West Des Moines, IA as a biohazard cleanup. Technicians wear protective suits, gloves, boots and respiratory protection, and the affected area is isolated from the rest of the building before removal begins.

How the cleanup proceeds

We first make sure the source is stopped, whether that means a plumber clearing a main line or the municipal system recovering after a storm. Standing sewage is extracted with dedicated equipment. Contaminated porous materials are cut out, bagged and removed through a controlled path to avoid tracking waste through clean areas.

Remaining surfaces, including framing, concrete and non-porous fixtures, are cleaned with detergent and then treated with antimicrobial disinfectants. We pay attention to cracks, joints and the base of walls, where residue tends to collect. Only after this cleaning do we begin drying, because drying a contaminated surface simply fixes the contamination in place.

Restoring the space

After disinfection and drying, we verify moisture levels and inspect for missed residue. Rebuild then replaces drywall, insulation, flooring and trim. Odor is addressed by removing its source, not by masking it.

Throughout the job we document what was removed and why, which supports insurance claims and gives you confidence the work was done correctly. If a recurring backup is caused by a plumbing issue, we point it out so it can be corrected before it happens again.
