How it works: typical national figures of about $3.75 to $7 per square foot for clean water, $4.50 to $8.50 for gray water and $7 to $13 for black water, multiplied by 1.25 to 1.7 for drywall, ceilings, hardwood or finished basements and by 1.25 when the water sat for more than two days, with a small-job minimum.

Typical Cost of Crawl Space Sewage Cleanup
Typical national sewage cleanup runs about $2,000 to $15,000 or more. A tight crawl space, broad spread under the ground cover, contaminated insulation and extended drying all affect the work. These are typical ranges, not a price for any specific house.
- Contained spill: $2,000 to $3,000. Typical range when the affected area is limited and accessible.
- Multiple wet zones: $3,000 to $7,000. Typical range when extraction and removal cover more material.
- Widespread contamination: $7,000 to $15,000+. Typical range when sewage reaches more of the crawl space.
- Drying and rebuild: Varies by scope. Plumbing and reconstruction are priced separately after conditions are known.
What changes the price
- Square footage and water depth
- Access height and distance from the hatch
