On local calls
Situations we handle carefully
Sewage backups
A backed-up toilet, drain, or sewer line in a Carson City home is a biohazard. We contain, remove, and disinfect — see our sewage backup cleanup page for that exact scenario.
Contaminated standing water
Standing water that has touched waste or unsanitary sources carries pathogens. We extract it with proper PPE and disinfect the area.
Affected porous materials
Carpet, pad, drywall, and insulation that absorbed contaminated water usually can’t be salvaged — we remove and dispose of them properly.
Lingering odor
Sewage and contamination leave odor behind. We deodorize once the source is removed, not just mask it.
Commercial contamination
Carson City businesses need safe, documented cleanup that gets you reopened — with insurance claim & documentation help.
Sewer-related flooding
Storm surcharge and ground-level flooding in the Carson Valley can push contaminated water indoors. We treat it as a biohazard, not clean water.

FAQ
Biohazard & sewage remediation FAQs
What makes a cleanup a biohazard situation?
Contaminated water — like sewage or sewer-related flooding — carries health risks and requires containment, proper PPE, safe removal, and disinfection. In Carson City, avoid the area and call Aqua Damage at 877-547-0723 for 24/7 emergency response.
Should I attempt biohazard cleanup myself?
No. Contaminated cleanup is a health risk and shouldn’t be handled without protection. Aqua Damage is IICRC-certified and uses proper PPE, containment, and disinfection to handle it safely — you reach Andrew directly, not a call center.
What materials are removed in remediation?
Porous materials that absorbed contaminated water — such as carpet, pad, drywall, and insulation — usually can’t be salvaged, so we remove and dispose of them properly and document what was taken.
How is the area sanitized?
After removing contaminated materials, we clean and disinfect the surfaces, then deodorize the area so it’s sanitary rather than just dry.
Do you dry the space afterward?
Yes. Once the area is safe, disinfected, and deodorized, Aqua Damage dries the structure with moisture monitoring to lower the chance of mold and secondary damage.
Is biohazard remediation covered by insurance?
It can be, depending on the cause and your policy. Aqua Damage provides insurance claim & documentation help — photos and moisture readings — to support your claim.
