They usually involve sewer pipe blockages in either main sewer lines or in the private sewer service line which the property owner owns and maintains.  Causes of a backup may include pipe breaks or cracks due to tree roots, system deterioration, insufficient system capacity due to residential or commercial growth, or construction mishaps.

•  Avoid contact with sewage and items contaminated with sewage
