sewage cleanup
Treating contaminated water
Sewage cleanup is the process of removing and sanitizing areas contaminated by sewage—wastewater containing human waste, bacteria, and other hazardous materials.
The term typically appears in contexts of flooding, pipe bursts, or septic failures: We had to call a professional service for sewage cleanup after the basement flooded.
The work involves extraction, disinfection, and often disposal of contaminated materials.
