You’re not just getting cleanup—you’re getting your life back. Your basement becomes usable space again, not a contaminated health hazard. The air smells clean, not like a sewer. Your family can safely walk through every room without worry about harmful bacteria or lingering toxins.
We handle the complete process so you don’t have to deal with hazardous waste, insurance headaches, or wondering if the job was done right. When we’re finished, your property is restored to the same condition it was before the sewage backup happened. That’s what matters when you’re dealing with something this serious in your Bayside home.
We serve Bayside’s discerning homeowners who understand the importance of doing restoration work correctly the first time. We’re not the cheapest option in Wisconsin, and that’s intentional.
You’re investing in certified technicians who know how to handle Category 3 contaminated water safely. You’re getting industrial-grade equipment that actually removes every trace of sewage and moisture. Most importantly, you’re working with professionals who understand that your Bayside property represents a significant investment that needs to be protected properly.
First, we assess the contamination scope and establish safety containment to protect unaffected areas of your home. Our certified technicians arrive with full protective equipment because sewage contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that require professional handling.
Next comes complete sewage extraction using powerful pumps and vacuums designed for hazardous waste removal. We don’t just mop up surface water—we remove every trace of contaminated material from your property. Then we sanitize all affected surfaces with industry-grade disinfectants that eliminate harmful microorganisms.
The final phase involves moisture removal using commercial dehumidifiers and air movers, followed by professional deodorization to eliminate any lingering sewage odors. We complete the process with restoration work to return your property to its pre-loss condition.

Your sewage damage cleanup includes hazardous waste removal, complete sanitization, moisture extraction, deodorization, and structural drying. We handle insurance documentation and work directly with your carrier when possible to streamline the claims process.
Bayside’s climate and older home infrastructure can create unique challenges during sewage backups. Heavy rainfall and snowmelt often overwhelm drainage systems, while mature trees common in established Bayside neighborhoods can cause root intrusion into sewer lines. We understand these local factors and adjust our restoration approach accordingly.
Our service covers everything from initial emergency response through final restoration, including removal and replacement of contaminated materials like drywall, flooring, and insulation when necessary. You get one team handling the entire project from start to finish.
We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout Bayside, typically arriving within 60-90 minutes of your call. Sewage cleanup can’t wait because contaminated water poses immediate health risks to your family and causes exponentially more property damage with each passing hour.
Our rapid response time matters because Category 3 water like sewage contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that become airborne and spread throughout your home’s ventilation system. The sooner we contain and extract the contamination, the less extensive the sanitization and restoration work becomes. Fast action also prevents sewage from soaking deeper into structural materials like subflooring and wall framing, which would require more invasive repairs.
Sewage cleanup requires specialized training, equipment, and safety protocols because you’re dealing with Category 3 contaminated water that contains human waste, bacteria, viruses, and other dangerous pathogens. This isn’t something you can handle with regular cleaning supplies or standard water extraction equipment.
Our technicians wear full protective gear including respirators, hazmat suits, and sealed boots because exposure to raw sewage can cause serious illnesses including gastrointestinal infections, skin conditions, and respiratory problems. We use industrial-grade disinfectants specifically designed to eliminate sewage-borne pathogens, not household cleaners. The disposal process also requires following strict hazardous waste regulations that don’t apply to clean water damage situations.
Insurance coverage for sewage damage depends on the cause of the backup and your specific policy details. Many standard homeowner’s policies exclude sewer backup damage, but you may have purchased additional sewer backup coverage as an endorsement or rider.
We work directly with insurance companies throughout the Milwaukee area and understand the documentation requirements for sewage damage claims. Our team photographs all damage, provides detailed scope reports, and can communicate directly with your adjuster to expedite the claims process. We also offer direct billing arrangements when your coverage allows, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket and wait for reimbursement. The key is calling us immediately so we can begin documenting everything properly from the start.
Complete sewage decontamination requires a multi-step process that goes far beyond surface cleaning. We start by removing all standing sewage and contaminated water using powerful extraction equipment designed for hazardous waste. Then we remove any porous materials like carpet, padding, and damaged drywall that can’t be properly sanitized.
All remaining surfaces get treated with EPA-approved antimicrobial solutions that eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens found in sewage. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to identify hidden moisture that could lead to mold growth later. Air scrubbers with HEPA filtration remove airborne contaminants, while commercial dehumidifiers ensure complete structural drying. Finally, we apply professional-grade deodorizers to eliminate any lingering sewage odors that indicate incomplete cleaning.
Your first priority is safety—avoid contact with sewage-contaminated areas and keep family members and pets away from affected rooms. Turn off electricity to flooded areas if you can do so safely from the main panel, but never enter standing water where electrical outlets or appliances might be submerged.
Don’t attempt to clean up sewage yourself using household equipment. Raw sewage contains dangerous bacteria and viruses that require professional-grade protective equipment and cleaning agents to handle safely. Take photos for insurance documentation if you can do so without entering contaminated areas, then call us immediately for emergency response. The sooner professional cleanup begins, the less damage occurs and the lower your restoration costs will be.
Most sewage cleanup and restoration projects take 3-7 days depending on the contamination extent and structural damage involved. Emergency extraction and initial sanitization typically happen within the first 24-48 hours, followed by structural drying that can take 2-4 days with our commercial equipment.
Restoration timelines depend on how much contaminated material needs replacement. Minor sewage backups affecting only concrete basement floors might be completed in 2-3 days, while extensive contamination requiring drywall replacement, flooring removal, and structural repairs could take a week or more. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is thorough restoration that’s completed as quickly as possible so you can safely return to normal life in your Bayside home.
