(512) 698-8444Raw sewage contains E. coli, hepatitis A, salmonella, and other pathogens that can make your family seriously ill through skin contact or inhalation. Do not attempt to clean it up with household products. Standard cleaning supplies do not adequately decontaminate porous building materials, and the act of mopping or scrubbing can aerosolize pathogens and spread contamination to clean surfaces.
Our IICRC-certified crew arrives in full protective equipment with the specialized extraction tools, containment barriers, and EPA-registered disinfectants required to clean sewage damage safely. We handle everything from extraction and decontamination through material removal, structural drying, and complete rebuild.
Complete sewage cleanup
From Category 3 water extraction and biohazard decontamination through structural drying, mold remediation, and full rebuild, we handle every phase of sewage backup restoration under one roof.
Austin's aging sewer infrastructure, heavy tree canopy, and clay soil create a recurring sewage backup problem for homeowners across central, east, and south Austin. When sewage enters your home, the damage is not limited to what you can see. Contamination migrates through porous building materials like drywall, subfloor, and wall framing, and mold can begin growing on top of that pathogen load within 24 hours. Household cleaning products cannot address Category 3 contamination safely or completely. Our IICRC-certified crew uses containment barriers, HEPA air scrubbers, EPA-registered disinfectants, and calibrated moisture meters to clean every affected surface and confirm the structure is decontaminated and dry before anything is closed back up.
Raw sewage is classified as Category 3 water, the most contaminated category in the IICRC Standard, containing bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that pose a real health risk. Our crew uses full personal protective equipment and follows IICRC S500 protocols for safe containment, extraction, and structural decontamination of sewage-affected areas.
Sewage backup cannot sit. Contamination spreads rapidly through porous materials like drywall, insulation, and subfloor. Our Austin crew responds around the clock and aims to be on-site within 60 minutes of your call, day, night, or weekend.
We document sewage damage accurately for your insurance claim, noting the category of water, affected materials, and the cause where determinable. Standard homeowners policies often exclude sewage backup without a rider, but we help you understand your coverage and handle all claim documentation so your insurer has everything they need to process it correctly.

“Ryan is a legend! Half my house flooded and the flooring, baseboards, and door frames had to be removed. He was at my place within an hour with all the equipment and info on how to file an insurance claim, then turned up the next day with a team to get things going. His communication is on point. So reliable. Saved my sanity!”
Google review “Call Ryan with Total Restoration if you ever have a water issue at home or the office. I've used them three times and each time Ryan and Jason responded quickly, same day on the job. They work seamlessly with my insurance and were compassionate toward my tenants. Even my insurance adjuster said he loves working with this company.”
Google review “I can't say enough about how Total Restoration of Texas helped me through the remediation process after the water heater in my attic leaked. I had used a big franchised company before, but by the time they called me back, Total Restoration had already completed the project. Their crew, led by Ryan Cook and Daniel, was amazing.”
