Flooded Basement Cleanup in Orland Park

Water from sewer system backups should be considered very dangerous. The water is grossly unsanitary and may contain bacteria and viruses that could cause serious illness. Special training and equipment is necessary to safely clean this type of contamination.

There are three major types of contaminated water. SERVPRO of Orland Park will inspect that contaminated water to determine the type of water and then plan the appropriate response to safely restore your home or business. Category 1 is considered “clean water.”  Category 2 is “gray water.” Category 3 is “black water.”  

In these before and after pictures, this homeowner had experienced category 3 water due to the sewer drain being clogged.  We pumped out over 4 feet of water that had collected in the basement from recent storms.
