Category 3 Response

Sewage Cleanup in Gig Harbor, WA With Category 3 Protocol

A backed-up sewer line or failed septic system doesn't just mean a mess — it means contaminated water carrying bacteria and pathogens that has to be handled under strict containment. Attempting to clean up blackwater without proper protective gear is a genuine health hazard, not just an inconvenience.

Containment goes up immediately to keep contaminated water from spreading to unaffected areas of the property.
