Trauma Clean Pros treats every Sewage Cleanup call in Ithaca under IICRC S500 standards for Category 3 water, not general water cleanup.
Talk To A Technician
These are the standards Trauma Clean Pros holds on every Sewage Cleanup call in Ithaca, from extraction through final drying.
Certification and insurance travel with every Ithaca technician on every Sewage Cleanup job, no exceptions.
Our Ithaca dispatch pulls from the nearest available crew, not a distant regional hub.
We quote the Sewage Cleanup job after assessing contamination extent, so Ithaca clients know the cost before work starts.
Every Ithaca crew carries the equipment IICRC S500 protocols call for on a Category 3 water job.
Every Sewage Cleanup job gets scoped after assessing contamination extent, since backup source and duration both affect the right approach.
Truck-mount extraction units remove standing sewage water quickly, limiting how far contamination spreads into surrounding materials.
Anything porous that absorbed sewage gets removed — IICRC standards don't allow treating blackwater-soaked porous material in place.
Antimicrobial treatment follows removal on every job, since bacteria remain a risk even after visible water is gone.
We track drying progress with moisture meters rather than guessing when a structure is actually dry.
Technicians assess likely backup causes — tree root intrusion, municipal line issues, or sump pump failure — to help prevent recurrence.
Odor treatment is the final step, applied only after the underlying contamination has been fully addressed.
Call +1-844-401-0166 and a dispatcher asks about the extent of the backup and affected areas before a crew is routed.
Once scoped by phone, the nearest available crew heads to your Ithaca location as fast as possible.
On-site, the crew confirms scope and likely backup cause, then gives a firm price before beginning extraction.
The job closes with a walkthrough and written report, and we return at no charge if a follow-up check finds anything unresolved.

Trauma Clean Pros dispatches Sewage Cleanup crews throughout Ithaca and the broader Ithaca, MI region, positioned to reach most addresses within the hour.
Most Ithaca calls see an on-site crew within 60 to 90 minutes, since sewage backups are treated as emergencies.
Every job gets a flat-rate quote up front, and that number doesn't change once we start.
Category 3 blackwater contamination makes porous materials like carpet padding unsalvageable under IICRC S500 standards, regardless of how they look.
Coverage depends on your policy, but our itemized reports and photos usually satisfy what insurers need.
Drying typically runs two to four days with industrial equipment, tracked with moisture readings until levels return to normal.
Common causes include tree root intrusion into sewer lines, municipal line failures, and sump pump failure during heavy rain.
