Sewer backup is one of the most serious and hazardous forms of water damage a property owner in Toronto or the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) can face. Whether you’re a homeowner or a business owner, a sewage backup can result in costly damage, pose serious health risks, and disrupt your daily life. At Restoration Canada , we specialize in sewer backup cleanup, emergency water damage restoration, and flood cleanup services throughout Toronto and the GTA.
What Causes Sewer Backup?
Several factors can lead to a sewage backup in your home or commercial property, including:
Heavy rainfall or stormwater flooding
Clogged or damaged sewer lines
Tree root infiltration in underground pipes
Aging infrastructure in older Toronto neighborhoods
Improper disposal of grease, paper, or hygiene products
These issues can result in contaminated water backing up into your basement, bathrooms, or drains, requiring professional sewer backup cleanup services immediately.
Why Is Sewer Backup Dangerous?
Unlike clean water floods, sewer water contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and other biohazards. Prolonged exposure to contaminated water can lead to serious health hazards, including skin infections, respiratory issues, and gastrointestinal illnesses.
That’s why fast, effective sewage cleanup and disinfection is critical. Our certified technicians use industrial-grade equipment to remove contaminated water, sanitize affected areas, and perform full water damage restoration.
Sewer Backup Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore
Look out for these common warning signs of an impending sewer backup:
Slow drains in sinks, tubs, or toilets
Foul odors coming from drains
Gurgling sounds in plumbing
Water pooling around floor drains
Toilet overflows when using other plumbing fixtures
If you notice any of these symptoms, contact a trusted sewer backup restoration company in Toronto right away.
