Few accidents are more stressful than sewage backups, and it’s not just the smell and mess that make raw sewage floods a headache. Bacteria, pathogens, and other contaminants are serious risks to those living in the home. Additionally, the causes of sewage backups aren’t always easily noticeable, so the full extent of the problem is often a mystery until professional sewage-cleanup services, like Orange County Restoration Services, arrive.
While many home- and business owners might admirably attempt to clean the mess themselves, the health risks and chances of spreading contaminants are simply too great for untrained individuals to risk—even if the problem seems small.

Raw-sewage floods, or Category III accidents, can result from a number of problems. Some of these issues are preventable while others are completely out of the home- or business owner’s control.
Improper disposal of certain materials, including grease, oil, and large objects in sinks and toilets, is the most common cause for backups. Other sources include broken or misaligned pipes. Tree roots may be rupturing underground pipes. This is a particularly common occurrence—especially if the pipes are old, or comprised of soft metals or clay. Heavy rains are another frequent cause of sewage backups as the overflow of water, along with tree branches, leaves, and other debris, flood piping systems and create further problems.
