Sewage Backup Removal in Greater Seattle, WA
Severe weather and fires normally come to mind when many people think about emergencies. However, emergencies can begin in your own house. Sewage overflow is a common problem that can have dire consequences if untreated. Whether it’s a minor bathtub backup or a seriously backed up toilet, touching any type of sewer water is dangerous. When you have this problem, don’t try to handle it yourself. Call the Paul Davis Emergency Services to sterilize the mess properly.
Dangers of Sewer Water
The gross factor isn’t the sole reason to stay away from sewer backup. Pathogen-carrying sewage water can flow into your clean water in some cases of backups. Even usable water can carry pathogens in stagnant water. Raw sewer water, for instance can carry Hepatitis A, Leptospirosis and other dangerous diseases.
Black water rises from past the toilet trap and often contains or has met with solid waste. Usually black water has remained stagnant for a long enough time to foster bacterial and viral growth. Natural water sources may also carry black water. Contact the Paul Davis Emergency experts now if you experience a black water flood in your home or business.
