Sewage Removal and Cleanup

Toilet Overflow Cleanup

Definition of Sewage

Sewage, sometimes called wastewater or sludge, is water carried waste that is transported away from homes, businesses and neighborhoods by a network of drains and pipes in the sewer. Sewage wastewater carries pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria and parasites, which are harmful to humans as well as animals and can cause serious illnesses and diseases. As sewage is the used up and discarded water of neighborhoods and communities, it contains body wastes, human excrement, laundry washings as well as industrial and agricultural waste, among others.
