Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Fort Lupton, CO Property Owners
How do I know if sewage is leaking under my house?
Common signs include a sewer smell in the yard or crawl space, soft or damp ground near the foundation, gurgling drains and slow drains in several fixtures at once. A plumber can confirm the leak. Once it is found, a cleanup team can take care of the contaminated soil, materials and odor.
What if the sewage came from a septic tank?
A septic overflow is cleaned as raw sewage, both inside any affected building and on nearby ground. Contaminated soil, materials and surfaces are handled and disinfected. A septic service may also need to empty or repair the tank.
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.
Who pays for sewage cleanup, the landlord or the tenant?
It depends on the cause, the lease and local law. A landlord's policy may cover the building, while a renter's policy may cover belongings. If the blockage was in a public sewer main, the city or utility may be responsible for the repair.
Does homeowners insurance cover sewage backup?
Often only with an added endorsement. Many standard policies treat sewer or drain backup separately from sudden water damage. Call your insurer before cleanup begins, take photos and keep receipts, and ask what they need to see.
Can I clean sewage myself?
A very small spill on a hard floor can be handled with gloves, boots, eye protection and a disinfectant used by label directions. Anything that reached carpet, drywall or a large area needs professional cleanup, because hidden contamination is hard to see.
