Nothing says "Good Morning" in New Fairfield, CT like a sewage backup.  Falling into the "Black Water" category, sewage backups contain harmful microorganisms. These floods are NEVER a "do-it-yourself" clean up – they always require a professional clean up. The SERVPRO of Newtown and Southern Litchfield County team removes sewage, contaminates and moisture, disinfecting as we clean. Exposure to biological and chemical contaminants can pose serious health consequences to your family. 

 Here are a few of the most common bacteria that are found in sewage and what they can do the human body: 

• E. Coli – Causes abdominal cramping, diarrhea and occasionally death. 
• Acanthomoeba – Causes eye, nose, throat and ear infections. 
• Salmonella – Causes abdominal cramping and diarrhea 
• Heliobacter Pylpri – Leads to increased chance of ulcers 
• Hepatitis – Causes liver infection and liver failure 
• Leptospirosis – Creates muscle aches and vomiting 

If you have a sewage backup in the Sandy Hook area, call SERVPRO of Newtown and Southern Litchfield County at (203) 743-5362 to have it cleaned up safely by professionals with over 20 years of experience.
