Poulsbo typically receives about 57 inches of rain a year, and heavy storms can overwhelm sewers and send wastewater up through drains. Only about 26% of homes in Poulsbo were built before 1980, but newer pipes can still fail from roots, blockages or ground movement.

A typical sewage & biohazard cleanup job includes:

  • Cleanup of sewage under a house or in a crawl space where pipes have failed
  • Decontamination of HVAC components and air paths when sewage odor has spread
  • Bagging and proper disposal of contaminated materials as hazardous waste
  • Raw sewage removal from floors, basements, crawl spaces, garages and utility rooms
  • Commercial sewage cleanup in restaurants, offices, shops and apartment buildings

From Sewer Backup to Safe Space: The Process in Poulsbo, WA

1. Stop the spread

Doors are closed, vents covered and the work area is isolated so contamination stays where it started.

2. Remove the liquid

The team takes out all standing wastewater and wipes down wet surfaces before touching anything else.

3. Decontaminate

Contaminated materials are bagged and removed, and surfaces are scrubbed and treated with hospital-grade disinfectant.

4. Odor control and walkthrough

The crew treats lingering smells, checks air paths and walks the owner through what was done.

Raw Sewage Cleanup: Questions from Poulsbo, WA Property Owners

How do I clean sewage off concrete?

Concrete is porous, so sewage soaks in. The surface is scrubbed, rinsed and treated with a disinfectant, and the wash water is collected rather than spread. Stubborn odor may need a second round of treatment.

How long does it take to get sick from raw sewage?

Symptoms such as stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhea can start within hours or take a few days. Anyone with symptoms after exposure should contact a doctor. Children, older adults and people with weak immune systems are at higher risk.

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.

What if sewage backs up through a shower or tub?

Treat it as raw sewage. Keep people out of the bathroom, stop using the fixture and call for cleanup. The liquid can reach under flooring and into walls, so a crew checks beyond the visible puddle.

What illnesses can raw sewage cause?

Sewage can carry germs such as E. coli, norovirus, hepatitis A and Giardia. They spread through skin contact, splashes and hand to mouth contact. Washing well and wearing protection reduce the risk, but removal by a crew reduces it most.

How long does sewage cleanup take?

Small jobs may be finished in a day, while larger ones with tear-out, drying and odor treatment take longer. The time depends on the area affected and what had to be removed. The crew can tell you what to expect after assessing the space.
