Sewage Cleanup in Florida

Sewage problems are unusually common in Florida, and geology is a big reason why. More than two million Florida homes, roughly a third of the state's population, rely on septic systems, and those systems need several feet of dry soil beneath them to work. As the water table rises, even without a storm, drainfields saturate and untreated waste can back up into the home or surface in the yard. Hurricanes make it far worse, inundating septic systems across the state after recent storms and triggering tens of millions of gallons of wastewater releases in a single season. Sewage is Category 3 black water, carrying bacteria, viruses, and parasites, so it is never a do-it-yourself cleanup. Porous materials it touches usually must be removed, and every contacted surface needs professional extraction, disinfection, and drying.
