Home / SEWAGE CLEANUP CATEGORY 3 BLACK WATER
EMERGENCY SERVICE / SEWAGE
A sewage backup is not a job for a mop and a bucket. It is Category 3 contaminated water, and it carries real health risks. Our certified crews remove it safely, sanitize, and dry, so your home is clean and safe again.
Sewage water, called Category 3 or black water, contains bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants. It soaks into drywall, flooring, and subfloor fast, and what it touches usually cannot just be wiped down. The job is to remove it safely, dispose of contaminated material properly, sanitize everything, and dry the structure completely.
Regal handles sewage cleanup to IICRC standards with proper protective equipment, containment, and antimicrobial treatment.
We remove the contaminated water with proper protective equipment and containment, no cross-contamination.

The structure is dried to a documented standard and rebuilt to pre-loss condition.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Yes. It is Category 3 water, which carries bacteria and viruses that can make people sick. It should not be handled without proper protective equipment, which is why this is not a DIY cleanup.
Often no. Porous materials that absorb black water usually have to be removed for safety. Hard surfaces can be cleaned and sanitized. We tell you straight what can be saved.
Sudden sewage backups are often covered, sometimes with a specific backup endorsement on the policy. We document the loss and work with your carrier directly.
