Plumbing Overflow and Sewage Cleanup in Austin, Texas

Are you in need of sewage cleanup services in Austin, Texas? Hire WOW Total Cleaning & Restoration! Backed-up toilets present a clear problem when it comes to indoor flooding. The unsanitary water that can overflow can be very difficult to clean up, and it also poses dangerous health risks to those nearby. Toilet overflows happen when the pipes leading to the sewers are somehow blocked, either with solid objects like tissue paper or with backed-up fecal matter. There are also mechanical issues where the balloon in the toilet’s water tank is damaged and causes water to continuously come in, eventually leading to an overflow.


In instances such as these, don’t leave anything to chance – it’s best to contact the experts and get your toilet fixed as soon as possible. Once the flooding has started to affect other areas outside of the toilet, you know that it will take more than regular plumbing services to resolve this. As a result, you might want to consider more specialized remediation methods for water damage issues like toilet overflow. Contact us today if you have any questions about our services.

Preventing Sewage Backup in Your Home

Proper disposals

As devastating as sewage backup can be, there are a few ways to prevent it and make it less severe whenever backup does occur. One step is to be sure to dispose of grease properly—it may be tempting to just chuck that bacon grease into the sink, but the better option is to just throw it away. Also making sure that paper products are properly disposed of is another preventive tip. Wipes, paper towels, diapers, and feminine products all should be thrown away in the trash, not flushed down the toilet. These products were not meant to be put in a plumbing system as they do not deteriorate at all. Cutting tree roots also help, as this prevents the roots from overgrowing and causing a pipe to burst. While these tips can temporarily prevent a pipe burst, these tips are not permanent. Plumbing, even with expert care, is bound to break at one point or another. But what is more important is what to do when a pipe burst happens.

What to do when your pipes burst

If your pipes have busted, and sewage backup has begun to invade your home, it’s easy to begin panicking if you don’t know what to do. Thankfully, there are a few steps you can do to migrate the damage and bring some sense to this situation. The first step is to make sure your water line is turned off. This is done to sufficiently stop more water and sewage backup from coming into your home. It also may be a good idea to cut the electricity to your home too, as sewage backup has the potential to cause electrical fires. After these two steps are done, it’s a good idea to put on personal protective equipment, such as gloves, long sleeves, boots, goggles, and a face mask, to prevent any indigestion or cause any ill-effects of the toxic sewage and try your best to move furniture and other valuables away from the sewage. Remember that your plumbing system cannot be used if there is sewage backup—this will just cause more waste to come into your home. It’s best to call a professional, such as WOW Total Cleaning & Restoration, to begin the clean-up and restoration process immediately.
