BeforeAfterWhy sewage is not a DIY cleanup
Category 3 water carries bacteria and viruses into every porous surface it touches
Contain first
Poly barriers and negative air keep contamination out of the rest of the home or building.
PPE and disposal
Contaminated drywall, carpet, and pad removed and disposed of properly — not dragged through the house.
Sanitize and verify
Antimicrobial treatment on every affected surface, then drying to verified moisture readings.
Insurance file
Photos, moisture logs, and a written scope for your BC insurer or strata council.

Contain, remove, sanitize, dry, rebuild
Sewage cleanup is a contamination job before it is a water job. We isolate the area, remove what cannot be saved, treat everything that stays, and only then dry and rebuild.
- Contain the area and set negative air
- Extract contaminated water and remove porous materials
- Sanitize every affected surface
- Dry to verified readings, then rebuild with the same crew

Sewage backup cleanup in Greater Vancouver
Heavy rain surcharges Vancouver's combined sewers and pushes water back up through basement floor drains. In condos, a blocked stack sends it through a toilet or shower in the lowest unit. Either way it is Category 3 water and needs a contamination protocol.
Keep people and pets away from the affected area, do not run fans that spread aerosols, and turn off power to wet outlets if it is safe to reach the panel. Then call — we answer 24/7.
Shield documents the loss as we work so your insurer or strata has what it needs. Sewer backup coverage in BC is often a separate endorsement, and a clear scope makes the claim easier.
