Sewage backup cleanup in Tucson
A sewer line backup brings category 3 water into the house, usually through the lowest drain: a shower, floor drain or toilet. It needs to be cleaned up by a crew with protective gear and antimicrobial treatment, not a mop.

Keep everyone safe
- Keep kids and pets out of the affected rooms.
- Stop using water anywhere in the house; every flush adds to it.
- Don't run the HVAC if it pulls air from the affected area.
- Wash hands and clothes after any contact.
What cleanup involves
Crews extract the water, remove porous materials that it touched, clean and disinfect hard surfaces, then dry the structure. A plumber will need to clear or repair the sewer line. Root intrusion and old clay or Orangeburg lines are common causes in older Tucson neighbourhoods.
