You’re not just getting cleanup—you’re getting your life back. No more worrying about hidden contamination lurking behind walls or under floors. No more wondering if that smell will ever go away.
Your home becomes truly safe again. The kind of safe where you can let your kids play in the basement without a second thought. Where guests don’t wrinkle their nose when they walk in. Where you sleep soundly knowing the job was done right the first time.
We don’t just remove the mess. We eliminate the threat, restore the damage, and give you complete peace of mind that your property is genuinely clean and healthy.
We’ve been serving Southern Wisconsin families through their worst water and sewage emergencies. We’re not some distant corporate franchise—we’re your local neighbors who understand exactly what Hales Corners homeowners face.
We know how the area’s aging sewer infrastructure can create unexpected problems. We’ve seen how quickly sewage damage can spiral out of control if not handled properly. That’s why we’ve built our reputation on fast response times and thorough, professional cleanup that actually solves the problem.
When sewage hits your home, you need people who’ve handled hundreds of these situations before. You need equipment designed specifically for biohazard cleanup. You need a team that won’t cut corners when your family’s health is on the line.
First, we assess the full scope of contamination—not just what you can see, but what’s hidden behind walls and under floors. This tells us exactly what needs to be done to make your home truly safe again.
Next, we contain the affected areas to prevent sewage from spreading to clean parts of your home. Then we extract all contaminated water and materials using professional-grade equipment designed specifically for Category 3 water damage.
After extraction comes the critical part: thorough disinfection and sanitization. We don’t just clean surfaces—we eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that make sewage so dangerous. Finally, we dry everything completely and conduct a final inspection to ensure your home meets our strict safety standards.
You get documentation of everything we’ve done, which helps with insurance claims and gives you confidence that the job was completed properly.

Our sewage cleanup service covers every aspect of restoration your Hales Corners property needs. We handle emergency water extraction, complete sanitization, odor elimination, structural drying, and any necessary repairs to get your home back to its original condition.
Here in Hales Corners, we understand the unique challenges local homeowners face. The village’s connection to Milwaukee’s sewer system means that when problems occur, they can be significant. We’re equipped to handle everything from minor toilet overflows to major basement flooding from sewer backups.
We work directly with your insurance company to document damage and streamline the claims process. Our team provides detailed photo documentation, moisture readings, and written reports that insurance adjusters need to process your claim quickly and fairly.
Sewage damage poses serious immediate and long-term health risks that require professional intervention. Raw sewage contains harmful bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella, viruses, parasites, and other pathogens that can cause severe gastrointestinal illness, respiratory problems, and skin infections.
Children, elderly family members, and anyone with compromised immune systems face especially high risks from sewage exposure. Even brief contact with contaminated water can lead to serious illness. Airborne contaminants from sewage can trigger asthma attacks and other respiratory issues.
This is why professional cleanup is essential—we have the protective equipment, disinfectants, and expertise to eliminate these health hazards completely. DIY cleanup attempts often miss hidden contamination and can actually make the problem worse by spreading contaminants to previously clean areas.
Insurance coverage for sewage damage depends on the specific cause and your policy details. Most standard homeowner’s policies cover sudden and accidental sewage backups, especially if they result from covered events like burst pipes or equipment failures.
However, damage from long-term maintenance issues, sewer line problems on your property, or gradual leaks may not be covered. Some policies require separate sewer backup endorsements for full coverage. The key is acting quickly and documenting everything properly.
We work directly with insurance companies and understand exactly what documentation they need to process claims efficiently. We take detailed photos, provide moisture readings, and create comprehensive reports that help ensure you get the coverage you deserve. Our experience with insurance claims often means faster approval and payment for our customers.
We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout Hales Corners and surrounding areas, typically arriving within one hour of your call. Sewage emergencies can’t wait—every minute of delay increases health risks and property damage.
Our rapid response team is always equipped with professional-grade extraction equipment, containment materials, and disinfection supplies needed to begin immediate cleanup. We understand that sewage emergencies are traumatic and stressful, so we prioritize getting to your property quickly to stop the damage from spreading.
Once on-site, we immediately assess the situation, implement safety measures, and begin the cleanup process. Our goal is to have the immediate health threat contained and extraction underway within the first hour, giving you peace of mind that the situation is under professional control.
Sewage cleanup involves Category 3 “black water” that’s grossly contaminated with harmful microorganisms, requiring specialized equipment, techniques, and safety protocols that regular water damage restoration doesn’t need. Standard water damage cleanup deals with clean water from sources like burst pipes or appliance leaks.
Sewage cleanup requires our technicians to wear full protective gear, use hospital-grade disinfectants, and follow strict containment procedures to prevent cross-contamination. We must also dispose of contaminated materials as biohazardous waste, following EPA and Wisconsin health department guidelines.
The cleanup process is more intensive, often requiring removal and replacement of porous materials like drywall, insulation, and flooring that can’t be safely cleaned. We also conduct air quality testing to ensure all contaminants are eliminated before declaring the area safe for occupancy.
Whether belongings can be saved depends on the type of items, duration of exposure, and extent of contamination. Non-porous items like hard furniture, appliances, and sealed containers can often be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected using specialized techniques.
Porous materials like upholstered furniture, mattresses, carpeting, and paper products typically can’t be safely restored after sewage exposure and must be disposed of as contaminated waste. The health risk from trying to clean these items usually outweighs their value.
We carefully evaluate each item and provide honest recommendations about what can be safely restored versus what needs replacement. Our goal is to save whatever we can while ensuring your family’s safety isn’t compromised. We also provide detailed documentation of damaged items for your insurance claim.
Preventing mold growth requires complete moisture elimination and proper sanitization, which is why we use industrial-grade drying equipment and monitor moisture levels throughout the cleanup process. Mold can begin growing within 24-48 hours in moist environments, making rapid, thorough drying critical.
We place commercial dehumidifiers and air movers strategically throughout affected areas and monitor moisture levels in walls, floors, and other structural materials using professional moisture meters. Areas aren’t considered dry until moisture readings return to normal levels.
Our disinfection process also includes antimicrobial treatments that help prevent mold growth on cleaned surfaces. We remove any materials that can’t be properly dried or cleaned, eliminating potential mold food sources. Final air quality testing ensures the environment is safe and dry before we consider the job complete.
