Lehigh, IA's Sewage Cleanup Team, Full PPE Every Job

Yes, sewage is Category 3 blackwater and carries bacteria and pathogens that require full PPE and specialized disinfection.

We'll assess which materials must go and which can be treated and kept.

Our disinfection products meet EPA-registered standards for Category 3 water, not generic cleaner.

We don't close the file until air and surface checks pass.

Often yes, especially for sudden sewer backups, though coverage varies by policy — we can help document the loss for your claim.

Sewage should be treated as urgent, since delay increases both health risk and the amount of material that can't be saved.
