New Orleans Sewage Backup Needs Biohazard Cleaning

When a sewage line backs up the two most common areas in a New Orleans home to need biohazard cleanups are the shower and toilet because in most homes these drain into the same outlet. This type of water damage needs careful handling due to the presence of harmful bacteria and possible pathogens present in sewage. SERVPRO techs often put up containment to halt cross-contamination to other areas of the home from airborne water droplets and wear protective clothing and respirators during cleanup. The techs use powerful antibacterial and antimicrobial cleaning agents on all affected surfaces. As can be seen in the After Photo, the shower is ready for use again after being completely cleaned and disinfected.
