When sewage backs up in a Keller property, the cleanup has to be done correctly from the first step. Incomplete containment, improper material disposal, or skipped sanitization steps leave biological contamination in the structural materials — creating an ongoing health risk long after the visible mess is gone.
📞 Call +1-844-499-0972 — Keller Sewage ResponseThe four factors that make our Keller Sewage Cleanup service different from a general water damage company handling a sewage call.
COS Water Damage Restoration's Keller sewage cleanup crew operates under IICRC S520 standard — the industry's governing protocol for Category 3 contaminated water remediation. This covers the specific containment requirements, the PPE standards that protect our crew from pathogen exposure, the material removal requirements (what can be safely dried versus what must be removed and disposed of as a regulated waste stream), and the multi-application antimicrobial sanitization protocol that must be completed before any structural drying begins.
Proper disposal is a regulatory requirement, not a premium upgrade. It's standard on every Keller job.
After contaminated material is removed and Category 3 extraction is complete, every structural surface that contacted sewage water receives multiple applications of EPA-registered, hospital-grade antimicrobial and antifungal treatments. The sanitization sequence — spray application, dwell time, surface wipe-down, second application — is protocol-driven, not judgment-call driven. Our Keller crew follows the sequence on every surface, every time.
Our Keller claim coordinators handle the insurance piece. We can coordinate clearance testing when it's required.
Here's what our certified Keller Sewage Cleanup crew handles on every job.
The first action our Keller sewage crew takes on any Category 3 event is establishing negative-pressure containment — critical plastic sheeting barriers that prevent sewage contamination from spreading into unaffected areas of the property through airborne particles, foot traffic, and air circulation. Containment also controls odor migration within the property while remediation is underway. Simultaneously, we identify and coordinate the correction of the blockage or failure that caused the backup — whether that's a main line obstruction, a failed cleanout, or a sump failure — so that remediation isn't interrupted by a secondary event.
Extracting Category 3 sewage water from a Keller property requires specific PPE — full protective suits, respirators rated for biological hazard, and disposable boots — for every technician in the contamination zone. We use dedicated contaminated-water extraction equipment that is not shared with standard water damage jobs and is properly sanitized between uses. After extraction, all materials that contacted Category 3 water and cannot be decontaminated to a safe standard — carpet, pad, standard drywall, fiberglass insulation, and any non-cleanable surface materials — are removed as regulated waste, bagged in approved containers, and disposed of under WA biohazard material regulations.
Sanitization happens before drying equipment is staged. This sequence matters.
Odor neutralization is a final treatment step, not a product sprayed at the end to cover incomplete remediation.
Our Keller claim coordinators have processed Category 3 claims across WA carriers. We know what gets approved on first submission.
One company from sewage backup to finished reconstruction. No coordination gap, no separate contractor handoff.


Sewage events require immediate evacuation of affected areas. Our dispatcher will confirm this on the call.
Containment before contact. Source identified and addressed before cleanup proceeds.
No extraction, no material removal before the written scope is reviewed and approved by you.
Extraction, material removal, multi-phase sanitization, structural drying, and reconstruction proceed under your approved scope. Daily progress updates keep you informed. Clearance testing is coordinated where required or requested. Final sign-off at a walkthrough with your project manager. Written satisfaction guarantee on every Keller job.



"We have a young child and a dog and the moment the sewage smell hit I knew this was something I couldn't handle myself. COS Water Damage Restoration's Keller team was there in under 60 minutes, contained the area so our family could stay in the upper floors, and handled every part of the cleanup in a way I trusted. The clearance testing they coordinated at the end gave me documented proof that the remediation was complete."
"Three years later, no odor, no mold, no recurring issues. COS Water Damage Restoration did the Keller sewage cleanup right the first time. I'm telling every neighbor I know to call them first."
"I've used general contractors for water damage before with mixed results. After calling COS Water Damage Restoration for a sewage event in Keller, I understand the difference between a certified Category 3 remediation team and a general restoration company that 'also does sewage.' The protocols aren't comparable."
