IICRC Certified · Austin, TX · 24/7 Emergency Response
Safe, discreet, and fully compliant remediation of sewage backups, black water, and biohazardous contamination for homes and businesses.
Do not attempt to clean sewage or biohazardous materials yourself. Category 3 water contains bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that pose serious health risks. Improper handling can spread contamination and void your insurance claim. Call TRG immediately — we respond 24/7.
Situations We Handle
Sewage overflow and sewer line backups introduce Category 3 (black water) contamination — the highest risk level. All porous materials in contact must be removed and disposed of properly.
Floodwater from rivers, streams, or storm drains carries bacteria, pathogens, and chemical contaminants. Standard drying is not sufficient — full decontamination protocols are required.
Chemical spills, industrial waste, and other hazardous materials require specialized handling, PPE, and disposal in compliance with OSHA and EPA regulations.
Biohazardous situations involving blood or bodily fluids require discreet, compassionate, and fully compliant remediation. We work with sensitivity and professionalism.
Our Protocol
We respond 24/7. Upon arrival, our certified technicians assess the scope of contamination, identify the source, and establish a safety perimeter. All personnel don full PPE before entering the affected area.
Affected areas are physically isolated with containment barriers and negative air pressure to prevent cross-contamination to clean areas of the property.
All porous materials in contact with Category 3 water or biohazardous substances — drywall, flooring, insulation, soft goods — are safely removed and disposed of in compliance with local and federal regulations.
Structural surfaces are thoroughly cleaned with EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectants. HEPA air scrubbers run continuously to capture airborne pathogens and particulates.
Sewage and biohazard situations leave persistent odors embedded in structural materials. We apply thermal fogging and antimicrobial treatments to neutralize odors at the molecular level.
After remediation, we verify that contamination levels are within safe limits. Once cleared, we restore damaged structural materials to pre-loss condition, coordinating with your insurance adjuster throughout.
Our team holds current IICRC certifications and follows industry-standard protocols for biohazard remediation and Category 3 water damage.
We understand that biohazard situations are often traumatic. We work quietly, professionally, and with full respect for your privacy.
We document everything thoroughly and work directly with your insurance company to ensure your claim is fully supported.
