Is the Sewage Damage Limited to What You Can See?
The visible wastewater may be only part of the problem. Sewage can move under flooring, enter wall cavities, and reach connected rooms before the full extent of the contamination becomes clear. We inspect the surrounding materials and explain what requires removal, cleaning, drying, or repair.
Signs Professional Sewage Cleanup May Be Needed
Water Is Returning Through a Fixture
Wastewater rising through a toilet, shower, sink, or floor drain may indicate an active blockage and should be kept away from people and pets.
Several Drains Are Responding Slowly
Gurgling sounds, slow drainage, or backups affecting multiple fixtures can signal a larger problem within the property’s drainage system.
The Sewer Odor Has Not Gone Away
An odor that remains after visible water is removed may indicate contamination inside porous materials or in a nearby concealed area.
Surfaces Were Touched by Wastewater
Carpet, flooring, baseboards, drywall, cabinets, and other materials exposed to sewage may require controlled cleaning or removal.
Wastewater Reached a Shared or Adjacent Space
In apartments, duplexes, businesses, and other connected properties, sewage may travel between rooms or units through common walls and flooring systems.
What to Expect After You Contact Us About Sewage Damage
From the first call, we keep the cleanup process organized and explain what needs to happen at each stage. Our team identifies the source area, evaluates where contamination traveled, completes the approved cleanup, and prepares the property for any necessary repairs.
We Review the Backup With You
We ask where the sewage appeared, which fixtures were involved, when the problem began, and whether wastewater is still entering the property.
We Evaluate the Contaminated Areas
Our team inspects the visible damage and checks adjoining rooms, flooring, walls, cabinets, and other materials that may have been reached.
We Define the Cleanup Scope
We identify what can be sanitized, which materials may need controlled removal, and where odor treatment or structural drying is required.
We Perform the Authorized Cleanup
We remove wastewater and affected materials, clean and sanitize exposed surfaces, and dry remaining building components that can safely stay.
We Prepare the Property for Completion
After cleanup, we review the work with you, document the finished areas, and coordinate approved repairs needed to restore the affected space.
Careful Sewage Cleanup for Homes, Rentals, and Businesses
Sewage contamination requires an organized response that protects unaffected spaces while addressing every material wastewater reached. We provide National City property owners with clear guidance, controlled cleanup, and coordinated restoration from the initial inspection through approved repairs.

Sam and Ali were absolutely fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, they were professional, thorough, and incredibly communicative. They came out multiple times to assess the situation and provided a detailed, transparent quote that clearly outlined the scope of work—no hidden fees, no surprises. What really stood out was their honesty and the time they took to explain everything. The level of detail they provided gave us full confidence in their knowledge and capabilities. They were easy to talk to, responsive, and clearly dedicated to helping their clients understand every step of the process. If you're looking for a company that is reliable, transparent, and truly knows their stuff choose A/S general contracting. I 10/10 recommend them.

The entire crew at A/S General Contracting were great! They kept me informed every step of the way. They were professional and did a great job on my restroom restoration. Magda helped me through the entire insurance process and I am so appreciative. I definitely recommend their services.
Rebecca GomezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
A/S general contractor was recommended by a friend and so glad I went with them. They were able to come in and remodel our house after a flood and it far exceeded my expectations. They turned a stressful situation to easy and stress free for us. Special shoutout to Sam, for keeping things honest and straight forward. I knew what I was getting from the get go and if I had any issues he was able to correct them within the hour. Sam is detailed oriented and you can he shows that he cares about the customers by his actions.
Chad WhitehouseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Two years after the “shoddy” work they performed we are having to completely replace the flooring. They shot pin nails into laminate flooring but that isn’t the worst part. The patchwork they used to lay a sub floor was crap. They know what they did. They all like to agree and blame the homeowner for whatever goes wrong. One tone even suggesting they because we live in a “trailer house,” the floor would never be perfect. Well now we see clearly what kind of a pieced together project they did, we now have someone who is fixing this fiasco! Don’t use them

Any leak damage will take time and patience. Ali, Greg and Abel were great. Good communication! Good follow through! Scheduling was clearly communicated. Every project takes time, but these guys took care of the little details. They also helped me get the most from my coverage. This is my 3rd time working with A/S Contracting. I would recommend them to anyone.

Olivia BueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
We had a major water leak that required us to file a claim through our insurance company, and our plumber referred us to A/S General. From the very beginning, Greg and Sam were incredibly helpful, guiding us through the entire process and helping expedite everything with our insurance company. Greg, Sam, and their entire team were professional, thorough, and communicative every step of the way. The construction crew consistently showed up on time, worked efficiently, and always left the work area clean at the end of each day. Thanks to their attention to detail and quality craftsmanship, our home is now in even better condition than before the water leak. We highly recommend A/S General to anyone in need of home restoration or construction services. Thank you to the entire team for taking such great care of our home!

I highly recommend A/S General Contracting and will most definitely be requesting their services again. I had major water damage in my house and the repair and replacement done was outstanding. The pricing was reasonable and the worked with me in every aspect of the job. Sam Abraham was very attentive, helpful, handled everything quickly and professionally. Customer service was astonishing and they worked very quickly to get me my house back to 150%. I am beyond pleased work they did. Well made, durable and worth every penny. The service, product and overall experience was outstanding.

I just want to start of by saying that this company went an above and beyond for us to get the scope writing and administrative negotiations with our insurance.I feel we received the most money so our insurance would take care of the flood we had at our home.
Andy R.August 23, 2024Verified
Requested to do the job asap. Told Sam Abraham we have house guests coming in at the middle of the week. He sent a crew to see what needs to be done. By Monday, they started fixing the damage and late afternoon, the same day, the job was done. Sam Abraham didn't promise but he produced the result. Ben L

Had some water damage in my shower and closet due to a burst pipe leak. A/S General Contracting came in and worked with my insurance to get my shower back to peak shape. Appreciate the professionalism and communication from Sam every step of the way. When I had a question he was easily accessible. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. Special thanks to Hugo as well for the good work.
Eric M.June 10, 2024Verified
The team has been on time,quick, understanding & professional. I can say a lot of people are not like that now and days. Sam and Travis were amazing at what they do. Need more good people like them. From somebody from the military nothing makes me happier than someone that is on time and staying true to their word. Continue the good work you do gentlemen.
Angel E.June 1, 2024Verified
Sam and A/S General were great to work with. Sam was very helpful in walking us through the insurance process for our water damage and was even able to get us more money then our other contractor. Sam was always available no matter how many questions I had. I would definitely recommend this company for any restoration project and Sam is by far one of the best individuals I have had to work with.

How Sewer Backups Can Affect National City Properties
National City’s mix of older homes, duplexes, apartment buildings, restaurants, and commercial properties can create different sewage-cleanup situations. Wastewater may remain in one bathroom or move through shared walls, flooring systems, and adjoining units. The city explains that property owners are generally responsible for maintaining the private sewer lateral connecting their building to the public main. Its sewer-backup guidance also explains who to contact when a backup occurs and how the city determines whether the obstruction is in the public main or private line.
Areas Commonly Affected by Sewage Damage
- Flooring and subflooring
- Carpet and padding
- Drywall and lower wall materials
- Baseboards and trim
- Cabinets and built-in finishes
- Wall cavities and insulation
- Connected rooms reached by wastewater

Sewage Cleanup FAQs in National City
What should I do if sewage enters my property?
Keep people and pets away from the affected area and stop using toilets, sinks, and other plumbing fixtures when possible. Call us so we can inspect where the wastewater spread and explain the safest next step.
Should I call a plumber or a sewage cleanup company?
A plumber addresses the blockage, damaged pipe, or sewer-line problem causing the backup. Our restoration team handles the contaminated water, affected materials, cleaning, sanitizing, drying, and property damage left behind.
Can sewage contamination remain after the water is gone?
Yes. Wastewater may soak beneath flooring, behind baseboards, into drywall, or inside cabinets even after the surface appears dry. These areas may need closer inspection, cleaning, removal, or drying.
Can you provide documentation for my insurance claim?
Yes. We can photograph the affected areas, document contaminated and damaged materials, prepare information about the recommended work, and communicate with your insurance adjuster to help simplify the process.
Can AS General repair the property after sewage cleanup?
Yes. After the contaminated areas are cleaned and dried, our team can help with approved repairs or reconstruction involving drywall, flooring, cabinets, baseboards, and other affected materials.
