It depends on the cause, the lease and local law. A landlord's policy may cover the building, while a renter's policy may cover belongings. If the blockage was in a public sewer main, the city or utility may be responsible for the repair.
If the cleanup missed contaminated materials, germs and odor can linger. That is why crews remove porous materials, disinfect every surface they touched and inspect the work. Thorough removal is what lowers the risk.
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.
Symptoms such as stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhea can start within hours or take a few days. Anyone with symptoms after exposure should contact a doctor. Children, older adults and people with weak immune systems are at higher risk.
Plumbers usually clear the blockage or repair the pipe, but most do not remove contaminated materials or disinfect the space. A sewage cleanup company picks up where the plumber stops, and the two jobs often happen in sequence.
The price depends on how much sewage there is, how far it spread and which materials must be removed. A bathroom overflow costs less than a flooded basement. The team sets the price after seeing the space, and nothing is decided on a call alone.
