Why It Matters in San Francisco
Black water can carry E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A. Contaminated drywall and carpet cannot be safely cleaned and must be removed, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Contamination is rarely limited to what you can see. In San Francisco homes, fluids often travel into carpet pads, subfloors, baseboards and drywall, and trained technicians know how to trace and remove them safely.
The Sewage Cleanup Process
- Stop the source Shut off water and call a plumber if the line is still backing up.
- Extraction Standing sewage water is pumped and vacuumed out.
- Material removal Carpet, padding and drywall that absorbed black water are removed.
- Disinfection Every affected surface is cleaned and disinfected.
- Drying and mold prevention Dehumidifiers and air movers dry the structure.
San Francisco's dense flats and Victorian buildings, along with Marin and southern Sonoma towns like Novato and Petaluma, often involve shared walls and older materials. Discreet service matters in close-knit neighborhoods.
