You’re not wondering if dangerous bacteria are still lurking in corners or if that musty odor will come back next week. Professional sewage cleanup means every surface is sanitized, every contaminated material is properly removed, and every trace of the disaster is eliminated.
Your home insurance claim is documented properly. Your restoration is complete. And you can finally stop worrying about what this mess might do to your family’s health or your property value.
We’ve been cleaning up sewage disasters across Milwaukee for years. We’re a local, family-owned company that understands what Walker’s Point homeowners face when aging sewer lines fail.
Your neighborhood sits on some of Milwaukee’s oldest infrastructure. Properties built in 1938 weren’t designed for today’s demands, and when those clay pipes crack or tree roots break through, sewage finds its way into basements fast.
We’ve seen it all in Walker’s Point—from minor toilet overflows to major sewer backups that flood entire lower levels. Our IICRC-certified technicians know exactly how to handle Category 3 water damage safely and completely.
First, we assess the damage and identify safety hazards. Our team arrives with full protective equipment and industrial-grade tools designed for sewage cleanup.
Next comes extraction. We remove all standing sewage water and contaminated materials that can’t be salvaged. This isn’t regular water—it’s Category 3 black water that requires specialized handling and disposal.
Then we sanitize everything. Every surface gets treated with professional disinfectants that eliminate bacteria, viruses, and pathogens. We use air scrubbers to remove contaminated particles from the air and industrial dehumidifiers to ensure complete drying.
Finally, we restore your space. Damaged drywall, flooring, and insulation get replaced. We don’t just clean—we rebuild your basement to pre-damage condition so you can use it safely again.

Walker’s Point homeowners get complete sewage restoration services. This means emergency water extraction, hazardous material removal, structural drying, sanitization, odor elimination, and full reconstruction of damaged areas.
Milwaukee’s aging sewer infrastructure creates unique challenges. Many Walker’s Point homes still have original clay or cast-iron lateral pipes that crack over time. When these fail, raw sewage backs up into basements, creating health hazards that require immediate professional intervention.
Our service includes working directly with your insurance company to document damage and streamline your claim. We understand Milwaukee’s specific infrastructure issues and know how to restore properties in historic neighborhoods like Walker’s Point where preserving character matters as much as eliminating contamination.
Sewage water is extremely dangerous and classified as Category 3 black water by industry standards. It contains harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites, and pathogens that can cause serious illness if you’re exposed without proper protection.
Never attempt to clean sewage yourself. The contamination goes beyond what you can see—it soaks into porous materials like drywall, insulation, and subflooring. Even after sewage water recedes, dried organic matter can become airborne and present respiratory hazards.
Professional cleanup eliminates these health risks completely through proper extraction, sanitization, and safe disposal of contaminated materials.
Walker’s Point sits on some of Milwaukee’s oldest infrastructure. Many properties were built in 1938 with clay or cast-iron sewer laterals that deteriorate over time, creating cracks where tree roots can intrude and sewage can back up.
Milwaukee’s combined sewer system also means that during heavy rains, storm water can overwhelm the system and force sewage back into basement drains. The city’s aging infrastructure simply wasn’t designed to handle today’s water volumes.
Tree roots from mature neighborhood trees naturally seek moisture and can infiltrate even small cracks in old sewer lines, eventually causing major blockages and backups into your basement.
Emergency sewage extraction and initial sanitization typically take 1-2 days, but complete restoration depends on the extent of damage and materials affected. Minor backups might be resolved in 2-3 days, while major contamination requiring drywall and flooring replacement can take 1-2 weeks.
The key is starting immediately. Sewage damage gets worse every hour it sits—bacteria multiply, odors set in, and contamination spreads to unaffected areas. Our 24/7 emergency response means we can begin extraction and sanitization within hours of your call.
Drying time is crucial and typically takes 3-5 days with industrial equipment. We monitor moisture levels throughout the process to ensure complete drying before reconstruction begins.
Most homeowner insurance policies cover sudden sewage backups, but coverage varies significantly based on the cause and your specific policy terms. Backups from municipal sewer line failures are often covered, while damage from neglected maintenance may not be.
Sewer backup coverage is sometimes an add-on endorsement rather than standard coverage. Review your policy carefully or contact your agent to understand what’s included. Some policies have specific limits for sewage backup claims.
We work directly with insurance companies to document damage properly and streamline your claim process. Our detailed photos, moisture readings, and restoration reports help ensure you get the coverage you deserve for professional cleanup and restoration.
You should not occupy areas affected by sewage contamination until professional cleanup and sanitization are complete. Sewage contains dangerous pathogens that pose serious health risks, especially to children, elderly family members, or anyone with compromised immune systems.
If sewage backup is limited to your basement and upper levels aren’t contaminated, you may be able to stay in unaffected areas while maintaining strict isolation from the cleanup zone. However, airborne contaminants can spread through HVAC systems.
We’ll assess your specific situation and provide clear guidance on safe occupancy during restoration. Many families choose temporary accommodations for 2-4 days while emergency extraction and sanitization are completed, then return home once the space is declared safe.
We’re a local, family-owned Milwaukee company that understands Walker’s Point’s unique infrastructure challenges. Our IICRC-certified technicians have years of experience dealing with sewage backups in historic neighborhoods with aging sewer systems.
We provide complete restoration services under one roof—from emergency extraction to final reconstruction. You won’t need to coordinate between multiple contractors or worry about whether the cleanup company understands restoration requirements.
Our 24/7 emergency response means we’re available when disaster strikes, not just during business hours. We also handle insurance documentation and claims assistance, reducing your stress during an already difficult situation. Most importantly, we guarantee complete sanitization and restoration to pre-damage condition.
