Best Sewage Cleanup and Sanitation in Greenfield

When a sewer line is blocked, the sewage that is thick and dark can be dangerous to your health. This sewer waste is extremely unsanitary, containing contaminants such as bacteria, viruses and pathogens. All of these contaminants can pose a serious health risk and lead to many illnesses if humans or animals are exposed. If it happens that you suffer a sewage backup on the property of your home or business, or a toilet backup in either location, fixing either one is of the highest importance. Having this dirty sewer waste in your home is dangerous and should be removed as soon as possible. Also, to know what is causing the sewer obstruction may aid in preventing this potentially hazardous situation. To help you in handling sewage backups in your home or business, following is a list of things that can help:

Sewage Backup Causes

• Drain Pipe Blockages – Sewage can infiltrate your home or business when either your drain lines or the main sewer line becomes clogged. For example, if one toilet creates a sewage blockage, the drain connected to that toilet, or the mainline of more toilets, will likely also be clogged.
• Tree Roots – Trees with long roots can move into pipes and cause holes or alter the sewer line by encircling it. Even if the roots in your yard are not the issue, roots from adjoining property can reach your sewer line and damage it, causing a sewer backup. Always be cognizant of roots where your mainline to the street or septic system is placed.
• Damaged Sewer Lines – Aging sewage systems can break down and crack, causing sewage blockages and flooded homes and basements. The older your neighborhood is, the greater chance of these types of incidents.
• Heavy Rainfall – Heavy amounts of rain can overburden your city’s storm sewer lines. If the public storm sewers can’t handle large amounts of rainfall, the water can make its way into attached sewer lines, which will put your home or business at risk of sewer backflows. Area-wide flooding waters from events like rising rivers and creeks, hurricanes, and other isolated events can also mix with sewage waste and other chemicals and contaminants that can lead to health-related issues. Extreme caution is needed when trying to walk in these waters, and even when the water recedes and begins to dry out. Dried out organic waste can then become aerosolized and become respirable. Proper PPE should be worn to avoid contact and risk of breathing in these contaminants.
