Why Choose SERVPRO® for Sewage Cleanup?

Sewage backups and biohazard situations present serious health risks that require immediate, professional intervention. At SERVPRO of Chambersburg and Gettysburg, we provide 24/7 emergency response for sewer overflows, septic failures, and pipe backups throughout Franklin and Adams Counties. Whether you are dealing with a residential backup in Gettysburg or a commercial facility issue in Chambersburg, our teams are trained to stabilize the environment and prevent the spread of dangerous contaminants.

We follow rigorous IICRC standards for the cleanup and sanitization of biohazard contaminants. Our process involves more than just extraction; we focus on comprehensive sanitization and professional odor neutralization to ensure your property is safe and habitable. We utilize advanced air scrubbers and specialized deodorization technology to eliminate the smells associated with sewer losses. Because sewage is a "Category 3" biohazard, we prioritize the safety of both the occupants and our staff by using industrial-grade protective equipment and specialized cleaning protocols.

An advantage of working with us is our capacity to manage the full recovery. Sewage damage often requires the removal of porous materials like drywall and flooring to ensure the space is truly clean. As a full-service restoration and reconstruction firm, we don't just perform the cleanup—we handle the entire rebuild to return your property to its preloss condition. We also understand the documentation and process required to work with our customer's insurance provider. For immediate sewage cleanup or a professional estimate, contact SERVPRO of Chambersburg and Gettysburg today.

Residential Sewage Cleanup

Sewage contamination in homes is often caused by toilet overflows, pipe backups, waste line leaks, or outside floodwater. Keep in mind that raw sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that can contaminate flooring, walls, air systems, and personal belongings.

With quick, professional, and discrete intervention from SERVPRO, you can avoid further damage, mold growth, lingering odors, and long-term health risks. And quickly return to a home that’s safe and livable again.

Commercial Sewage Cleanup

Sewage damage in commercial buildings can be disruptive. But with commercial sewage cleanup and biohazard restoration from SERVPRO, it doesn’t always require an extended shutdown. We act quickly to remove contaminated water, sanitize the space, and get your business back to safe operations.

We respond 24/7 with industrial-grade equipment and certified protocols. If possible, we will isolate problem areas so your operations can continue with minimal interruption.

From overflowing toilets to large-scale black water flooding, we’ve seen it all. We’re the team to make things right again.
