When sewage strikes your Enderis Park home, you’re not just dealing with a mess—you’re facing serious health hazards that demand immediate professional attention. Sewage contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that can cause severe illness if not properly handled.
Our certified sewage damage cleanup process eliminates these health risks completely. We extract all contaminated water, sanitize every affected surface, and restore your property to a safe, livable condition. You’ll have peace of mind knowing harmful contaminants are gone and your family can safely return home.
The difference between DIY attempts and professional cleanup isn’t just thoroughness—it’s your family’s health and safety.
We’ve been serving Enderis Park and the greater Milwaukee area as a family-owned business for decades. We’re IICRC certified and follow the highest industry standards for sewage cleanup and restoration.
What sets us apart in Enderis Park is our deep understanding of the community. We know the historic homes in your neighborhood, from the early 1900s properties around Enderis Playfield to the Period Revival homes from the 1920s and 1930s. We understand how sewage damage can affect these older structures and have the expertise to protect them.
Our local knowledge combined with professional-grade equipment means faster response times and better results for Enderis Park residents.
Our sewage damage cleanup process starts with immediate containment to prevent further contamination. We arrive equipped with professional-grade protective equipment and establish safety barriers to protect your family and property.
Next, we extract all sewage water using powerful pumps and vacuums designed specifically for contaminated water removal. This isn’t something you can handle with household equipment—sewage requires specialized extraction methods to ensure complete removal.
After extraction, we begin intensive sanitization using hospital-grade disinfectants that eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other dangerous pathogens. We then deploy industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to thoroughly dry all affected areas, preventing mold growth that often follows sewage incidents.
Finally, we restore any damaged materials and conduct a comprehensive inspection to ensure your home meets safety standards before we consider the job complete.

Our sewage damage cleanup service in Enderis Park includes complete water extraction, sanitization, deodorization, and restoration. We handle Category 3 water damage—the most contaminated type—with the specialized equipment and expertise it requires.
For Enderis Park homeowners, we understand the unique challenges your neighborhood faces. The area’s mix of historic homes and established trees means root intrusion into sewer lines is common, especially along the older streets near Lisbon and Appleton avenues. We’ve handled countless sewage backups caused by these issues and know exactly how to address them.
We also work directly with your insurance company to document damage and handle claims. Many homeowners don’t realize their policy may cover sewage backup if they have the right coverage, and we help navigate this process so you can focus on getting your life back to normal.
Sewage damage requires immediate attention—within hours, not days. The longer contaminated water sits, the more dangerous it becomes and the more damage it causes to your property.
Sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that multiply rapidly. Every hour of delay increases health risks for your family and the likelihood of permanent damage to floors, walls, and belongings. In Enderis Park’s older homes, sewage can seep into wood floors and plaster walls, causing structural damage that becomes exponentially more expensive to repair over time.
We provide 24/7 emergency response because we understand that sewage emergencies don’t wait for business hours. Our average response time is 90 minutes, and we arrive fully equipped to begin containment and cleanup immediately.
Coverage depends on your specific policy and the cause of the sewage backup. Many Wisconsin homeowners have sewage backup coverage as an add-on to their standard policy, but it’s not automatically included.
If your sewage backup resulted from a covered peril—like heavy rains overwhelming the municipal system—you may have coverage. However, if it’s due to poor maintenance of your sewer lateral (which is your responsibility as a homeowner), coverage may be denied. The key is having specific sewer backup coverage, which is relatively inexpensive but must be purchased before you need it.
We work directly with insurance companies and can help document the damage properly for your claim. We also provide detailed reports that support your case and ensure you receive the coverage you’re entitled to under your policy.
Sewage cleanup involves Category 3 water—the most contaminated type—which requires specialized handling that goes far beyond regular water damage restoration. This isn’t something you can handle with shop vacuums and fans.
Sewage contains human waste, bacteria, viruses, parasites, and often industrial chemicals or fertilizer runoff. It requires immediate containment to prevent airborne contamination, specialized extraction equipment, hospital-grade disinfectants, and complete removal of any porous materials that can’t be fully sanitized.
Regular water damage might allow you to save carpeting or drywall with proper drying. With sewage damage, these materials often must be completely removed and replaced because they cannot be adequately sanitized. The health risks are simply too great to take chances.
No—attempting DIY sewage cleanup puts your health at serious risk and often makes the damage worse. Sewage contains dangerous pathogens that require professional-grade protective equipment and specialized cleaning products to handle safely.
Household cleaning supplies and equipment cannot adequately sanitize sewage contamination. You need hospital-grade disinfectants, proper protective gear, and industrial extraction equipment. Without these, you’re exposing yourself and your family to bacteria that can cause severe gastrointestinal illness, skin infections, and respiratory problems.
Additionally, improper cleanup often fails to address hidden contamination in wall cavities, under flooring, or in HVAC systems. This can lead to ongoing health hazards and mold growth that costs far more to remediate later than professional cleanup would have cost initially.
Most sewage cleanup takes 1-3 days for the initial extraction and sanitization, with full restoration potentially taking up to a week depending on the extent of damage and materials that need replacement.
The timeline depends on several factors: the amount of sewage, how long it sat before cleanup began, and what materials were affected. In Enderis Park’s older homes, we often find that sewage has penetrated deeper into wood flooring and plaster walls, which can extend the drying and restoration process.
We work efficiently to get you back in your home as quickly as possible while ensuring the job is done thoroughly. Rush jobs in sewage cleanup can leave behind contamination that creates ongoing health hazards. We’d rather take the time to do it right the first time than have you deal with problems later.
First, ensure everyone’s safety by evacuating the affected area immediately. Don’t let children or pets near the contaminated area, and avoid walking through sewage water if possible.
Turn off electricity to the affected area if you can do so safely from outside the contaminated zone. Take photos for insurance documentation, but don’t enter the area without proper protective equipment. Open windows for ventilation if it’s safe to do so, but avoid using fans that might spread airborne contaminants.
Call us immediately at our 24/7 emergency number. The sooner professional cleanup begins, the less damage occurs and the lower your health risks. Don’t attempt any cleanup yourself—even minor exposure to sewage can cause serious illness, and improper handling often makes contamination worse.
