Many homes in Allouez, about 76%, date from before 1980. Older plumbing is a common source of backups, and older flooring and trim soak up sewage deeply. Rainfall in Allouez averages about 32 inches a year. Whether a backup comes from a storm or a clogged pipe, sewage on the floor needs the same biohazard response.
A typical sewage & biohazard cleanup job includes:
Residents, tenants and staff are moved out of the area while the crew sets up protective gear and containment.
Sewage is removed from the floor and low areas, and debris, trash and soiled belongings are cleared out.
Framing, subfloor and concrete are cleaned and treated, since sewage can soak into surfaces that look dry.
The crew treats lingering smells, checks air paths and walks the owner through what was done.

Yes. Sewage backups do not wait for business hours, so you can call Allouez Biohazard Cleanup Help any time, 24/7. Describe what happened and you get the next safe step explained.
Usually not. Carpet and padding soak up Category 3 water and cannot be reliably made safe, so they are cut out and discarded. Hard surfaces, sealed wood and items in closed containers can often be cleaned and kept.
Watch for a rotten-egg or sewer smell, wet spots or stains on floors and walls, unusually green grass over a pipe, and multiple drains backing up at the same time. If any of these show up, keep people away from the area and have the cause checked.
A very small spill on a hard floor can be handled with gloves, boots, eye protection and a disinfectant used by label directions. Anything that reached carpet, drywall or a large area needs professional cleanup, because hidden contamination is hard to see.
After the sewage and soaked materials are out, floors and walls are scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant used by label directions. Unsealed concrete can hold odor and needs extra attention. Crews often handle this step with professional equipment.
If sewage is still coming up, a plumber may need to stop the source. If sewage is already on the floor, a cleanup team can start containing it at once. Many property owners call both, and it does not matter much which is first. Sewer backup companies and plumbers often work one after the other on the same job.
Raw sewage is a biohazard, so do not wait on cleanup.
