Whether it’s caused by a clogged drain, flooding, or a natural disaster, backed-up sewage and overflowing toilets are a nuisance. A damaged sewer system releases waste and polluted water into your home or business, creating hazards to your health and extensive structural damage to your property. Your Orlando 1-800 WATER DAMAGE team provides fast, effective sewage cleanup services that get your property clean, fresh, and dry as soon as possible in Orlando, Sanford, Winter Park, and surrounding areas.
Causes of Sewage Backup
Sewage backups happen for several reasons, and each can quickly escalate into a major problem if not handled swiftly. Common causes include:
- Clogged drains: Blockages in your pipes can cause waste to flow back into your home or business.
- Septic tank failure: When not properly maintained, septic systems can overflow, leading to hazardous raw sewage leaks.
- Storm flooding: Severe weather can overwhelm drainage systems, causing backups and contamination.
- Tree Roots: If tree roots infiltrate a septic tank, it can cause a failure. The same is true for a leach field.
No matter the cause, our professional sewage backup cleanup services ensure your property is treated quickly and effectively.

How To Prevent Sewer Backups
The key to preventing sewer backups is to take care of your plumbing system and sewer line. Here are some steps you can take:
- Only flush toilet paper
- Don’t flush grease (especially with a septic system)
- Look for septic safe toilet paper
- Regular maintenance
- Install a backwater valve
Septic Tank Failure Cleanup
If not maintained properly, septic tanks can fail and overload, causing raw sewage to seep into your home. We’re here to provide safe and thorough cleanup after septic tank failures to remove any hazards from your property.
