Only about 43% of homes in Hammond were built before 1980, but newer pipes can still fail from roots, blockages or ground movement. Rainfall in Hammond averages about 33 inches a year. Whether a backup comes from a storm or a clogged pipe, sewage on the floor needs the same biohazard response.
The work often covers:
- Tear-out of sewage-soaked carpet, padding, drywall, baseboards and insulation
- Raw sewage removal from floors, basements, crawl spaces, garages and utility rooms
- Containment and negative air to keep contamination out of unaffected rooms
- Commercial sewage cleanup in restaurants, offices, shops and apartment buildings
- Cleaning and sanitizing of salvageable furniture, appliances and stored belongings
How a Sewage Cleanup Company Works a Job in Hammond, WI
2. Extract and clear
Sewage is removed from the floor and low areas, and debris, trash and soiled belongings are cleared out.
3. Cleanup and tear-out
Liquid is removed first, then anything that cannot be cleaned, such as soaked flooring and wall board.
4. Sanitizing and deodorizing
Remaining surfaces are washed and disinfected, and odor is removed at its source rather than covered up.

Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Hammond, WI Property Owners
Should I call a plumber or a cleanup company first?
If sewage is still coming up, a plumber may need to stop the source. If sewage is already on the floor, a cleanup team can start containing it at once. Many property owners call both, and it does not matter much which is first. Sewer backup companies and plumbers often work one after the other on the same job.
Why does drywall have to be removed after sewage?
Drywall is porous and holds contamination that can spread germs and odor long after the surface looks clean. Crews usually cut out wall board that sewage touched, and often take out a margin above the wet mark to reach clean material.
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.
What is Category 3 water, also called black water?
Category 3 water is the most contaminated level, and sewage is the standard example. It can carry disease-causing germs and should never be cleaned with household supplies alone. Flood water that touched sewage is treated the same way.
Do sewage cleanup companies handle commercial properties?
Yes. Commercial sewage cleanup in restaurants, offices, shops and apartment buildings follows the same biohazard steps, with added attention to keeping part of the building usable and to documentation for managers and insurers.
Do plumbers clean up sewage?
Plumbers usually clear the blockage or repair the pipe, but most do not remove contaminated materials or disinfect the space. A sewage cleanup company picks up where the plumber stops, and the two jobs often happen in sequence.
