Project Type

In March of 2021, St. Louis had a lot of rain one night which caused the sewer line to collapse and flood the basement with water and sewage in one of our clients homes. Pride Cleaning and Restoration was called and we went in to perform basement sewage cleanup in St Louis. Our team knew that sewage backup in basement cleanup is very dangerous due to the toxic contaminants which can form when sewage is in a confined area. The Pride Cleaning and Restoration team members knew that because of the potential dangers, they needed to take their time and do it right. Flooded basement with sewage waste is very dangerous for people to be in.
