When sewage backs up into your home, you’re facing more than just a mess. You’re dealing with dangerous bacteria, viruses, and contamination that threaten your family’s health every minute they remain.
Our certified technicians eliminate every trace of contamination using hospital-grade disinfectants and industrial equipment. We extract all sewage water, remove damaged materials that can’t be salvaged, and sanitize every affected surface until your home meets strict safety standards.
You get your space back quickly, thoroughly cleaned, and safe for your family. No lingering odors, no hidden bacteria, no health risks.
We’ve been protecting Wisconsin families from water and sewage damage for years. We understand the unique challenges that Tippecanoe homeowners face, from aging sewer systems built in the 1940s to the area’s proximity to Milwaukee’s older infrastructure.
Our team knows that sewage emergencies don’t wait for convenient times. That’s why we maintain 24/7 availability and can be at your Tippecanoe home within hours of your call. We’ve handled everything from minor basement backups to major flood contamination throughout the Milwaukee area.
Every technician on our crew holds IICRC certification and follows strict safety protocols. We work directly with insurance companies to make the claims process as smooth as possible for you.
We start with a comprehensive safety assessment to determine contamination levels and identify all affected areas. This isn’t just about what you can see – sewage can seep into flooring, walls, and ventilation systems where bacteria continue growing.
Next, we extract all standing water and sewage using powerful pumps designed specifically for contaminated materials. We remove and properly dispose of any materials that can’t be safely cleaned, including carpeting, drywall, and personal items that pose health risks.
Then comes the critical sanitization phase. We clean every surface with EPA-approved disinfectants that eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. Our industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers ensure complete drying to prevent mold growth. Finally, we conduct air quality testing to verify your home is safe before we consider the job complete.

Your sewage cleanup service includes immediate emergency response, complete water extraction, contaminated material removal, and thorough sanitization. We handle everything from initial assessment through final air quality verification.
In Tippecanoe’s older housing stock, sewage backups often result from deteriorating sewer laterals or tree root intrusion – common issues in neighborhoods with mature trees and aging infrastructure. We understand these local factors and adjust our approach accordingly.
You also receive detailed documentation for insurance purposes, direct insurance company communication, and a guarantee that all work meets IICRC industry standards. We don’t just clean up the immediate problem – we help you understand what caused the backup and recommend preventive measures to protect your home in the future.
We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout Tippecanoe and can typically arrive at your property within 2-4 hours of your call. Sewage emergencies require immediate attention because harmful bacteria multiply rapidly, and structural damage worsens with each passing hour.
Our rapid response team is always equipped with the essential tools needed to begin immediate water extraction and contamination control. We understand that sewage backups don’t follow business hours, which is why we maintain full staffing around the clock. Time is critical in sewage cleanup – every hour of delay increases health risks and potential property damage.
Sewage contains dangerous bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, and other pathogens that cause serious illness through skin contact or inhalation. These contaminants can cause gastrointestinal infections, respiratory problems, skin infections, and other health issues, particularly dangerous for children, elderly family members, and anyone with compromised immune systems.
Beyond immediate bacterial threats, sewage creates conditions for rapid mold growth, which poses additional respiratory health risks. Professional cleanup eliminates these hazards using EPA-approved disinfectants and follows strict safety protocols to ensure complete decontamination. DIY cleanup attempts often miss hidden contamination and put your family at unnecessary risk.
Standard homeowners insurance typically doesn’t cover sewage backups unless you have specific sewer backup coverage added to your policy. However, if the backup results from a covered peril like a burst pipe, you may have coverage under your main policy.
We work directly with insurance companies and help document the damage properly to maximize your claim potential. Our detailed reports include photos, moisture readings, and contamination assessments that insurance adjusters need. We can also work with you on payment options if you don’t have coverage, because waiting for insurance approval shouldn’t delay critical health and safety measures.
We follow IICRC standards for Category 3 water damage, which classifies sewage as grossly contaminated water requiring the highest level of safety protocols. This includes complete extraction of all contaminated water, removal of porous materials that cannot be effectively sanitized, and thorough disinfection of all remaining surfaces.
Our process includes moisture detection technology to find hidden contamination, industrial-grade air scrubbers to remove airborne contaminants, and EPA-approved antimicrobial treatments that continue protecting against bacteria and mold growth. We conduct final air quality testing before considering any job complete, ensuring your home meets safety standards for reoccupation.
Stop using any water in your home immediately – running water will only worsen the backup. Keep family members and pets away from contaminated areas, and avoid contact with any sewage-contaminated surfaces. Turn off electricity to affected areas if you can do so safely from a dry location.
Call us immediately for emergency response, then contact your insurance company to report the damage. Take photos for documentation if you can do so safely, but don’t attempt any cleanup yourself. Sewage requires professional-grade equipment and safety protocols to handle safely – improper cleanup can spread contamination and create additional health hazards.
Most sewage cleanup projects take 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on the extent of contamination and materials that need removal. The initial extraction and sanitization usually happens within the first 24-48 hours, followed by drying and final restoration work.
Older Tippecanoe homes sometimes require additional time due to construction materials common in 1940s-era housing, which can absorb more contamination. We provide detailed timelines upfront and keep you informed throughout the process. Our goal is thorough cleanup that ensures your family’s safety, not just speed – rushing sewage cleanup can leave dangerous contamination behind.
