Your home is safe again. The smell is gone, the contamination is eliminated, and your family can breathe easy knowing every surface has been properly sanitized and restored.
You’re not dealing with lingering odors or wondering if harmful bacteria are still lurking in hidden corners. The floors are dry, the air is clean, and your property looks and feels like it did before the sewage backup happened.
Most importantly, you didn’t have to risk your health trying to handle hazardous waste yourself. Professional equipment handled what household cleaners never could, and you have peace of mind knowing the job was done right the first time.
We understand something other companies don’t: Wisconsin’s weather isn’t getting any easier to predict. We’ve seen the flooding that hit Southeast Wisconsin recently, and we know how quickly a sewage backup can turn your safe space into a health hazard.
We’re IICRC certified because when you’re dealing with contaminated water, there’s no room for shortcuts. Our team has the training and equipment to handle Category 3 water damage safely, which means we protect your family while we restore your property.
Westown residents choose us because we show up fast, work efficiently, and don’t leave until the job is done right. We’ve built our reputation on being the company you can count on when everything goes wrong.
First, we assess the contamination level and safety hazards. This tells us what equipment we need and how to protect your family during the cleanup process.
Next comes extraction and removal. We use powerful pumps to remove all standing sewage water, then safely dispose of any contaminated materials that can’t be salvaged. This includes carpets, drywall, and personal items that have been exposed to harmful bacteria.
Finally, we sanitize, deodorize, and dry everything thoroughly. Industrial-grade disinfectants eliminate pathogens, professional deodorization equipment removes odors at their source, and our drying systems prevent mold growth. We don’t consider the job finished until your property is safe and restored to its original condition.
Ready to get started?
You get immediate response when you call, because sewage emergencies can’t wait until business hours. Our team arrives with professional-grade extraction equipment, industrial sanitizers, and protective gear to handle the contamination safely.
Wisconsin’s recent flooding patterns mean sewage backups are becoming more common in our area. Heavy rainfall overwhelms aging sewer systems, and when that happens, contaminated water ends up in basements and living spaces. We understand these local conditions and have the specialized equipment needed to handle Wisconsin’s unique flooding challenges.
Your service includes complete odor elimination, thorough sanitization of all affected surfaces, proper disposal of contaminated materials, and industrial drying to prevent mold growth. We also coordinate with your insurance company to make the claims process as smooth as possible during an already stressful time.
We provide 24/7 emergency response for sewage backups because these situations pose immediate health risks. Most of our Westown calls get a response within 60-90 minutes, depending on your exact location and current weather conditions.
Time matters with sewage cleanup because harmful bacteria multiply rapidly in contaminated water. The longer sewage sits in your home, the more extensive the damage becomes and the higher the health risks for your family. E. coli and other dangerous pathogens can survive on surfaces for weeks if not properly treated.
That’s why we maintain emergency equipment and keep certified technicians on call around the clock. When you’re dealing with raw sewage, waiting until morning isn’t an option.
Sewage cleanup requires specialized training, equipment, and safety protocols because you’re dealing with Category 3 water, which contains human waste, bacteria, viruses, and other harmful pathogens. Regular water damage cleanup doesn’t involve these health hazards.
Our technicians wear full protective equipment and use industrial-grade disinfectants that household cleaners can’t match. We follow strict containment procedures to prevent contamination from spreading to clean areas of your home. Standard water extraction equipment isn’t sufficient for sewage because it can’t properly sanitize contaminated surfaces.
The disposal process is also different. Contaminated materials must be handled as hazardous waste and disposed of according to Wisconsin environmental regulations. This isn’t something homeowners should attempt on their own.
Insurance coverage for sewage cleanup depends on whether your policy includes sewer backup coverage, which is typically an add-on to standard homeowner’s insurance. Many Wisconsin residents don’t realize they need this additional coverage until they face a sewage emergency.
If you have sewer backup coverage, most policies will cover professional cleanup, sanitization, and restoration services. However, coverage limits vary, and some policies have specific requirements about how quickly you report the damage and begin cleanup.
We work directly with insurance companies and can help document the damage properly for your claim. Our detailed reports and photos help ensure you get the coverage you’re entitled to. Even if insurance doesn’t cover everything, professional cleanup is essential for protecting your family’s health and preventing long-term property damage that costs far more than immediate professional service.
Sewage odors penetrate porous materials and can’t be eliminated with regular air fresheners or household deodorizers. We use professional-grade ozone generators and thermal fogging equipment that neutralizes odor molecules at their source rather than just masking them.
The key is treating all affected materials, not just visible surfaces. Sewage contamination can seep into subfloors, wall cavities, and HVAC systems. Our technicians use moisture detection equipment to identify hidden contamination that homeowners often miss.
We also remove and properly dispose of any porous materials that can’t be effectively decontaminated, such as carpets, padding, and drywall that has absorbed sewage. Trying to save these materials usually means the odors return within days or weeks. Professional odor elimination is part of our complete restoration process, not an afterthought.
Sewage contains dangerous bacteria like E. coli and salmonella, viruses, parasites, and other pathogens that cause serious illness through skin contact, inhalation, or accidental ingestion. Children, elderly family members, and anyone with compromised immune systems face the highest risks.
Common health problems from sewage exposure include gastrointestinal infections, skin conditions, respiratory issues, and eye irritation. Some bacteria can survive on surfaces for over 100 days, which means contamination lingers long after the visible sewage is gone.
That’s why professional sanitization is crucial. We use EPA-approved disinfectants and follow strict protocols to eliminate pathogens that household cleaners can’t touch. Our team wears full protective equipment during cleanup to prevent cross-contamination, and we don’t consider the job complete until all surfaces test safe for your family.
Sewage cleanup typically takes 1-3 days for the initial extraction and sanitization, but complete restoration including drying and any necessary repairs can take up to a week or longer depending on the extent of contamination and materials affected.
The timeline depends on several factors: how long the sewage sat before cleanup began, how much area was contaminated, and what materials need to be removed or restored. Basements with concrete floors clean up faster than carpeted living areas that require material removal.
Drying is often the longest part of the process because we use industrial equipment to ensure all moisture is eliminated. Rushing this step leads to mold growth, which creates new health hazards and additional costs. We monitor moisture levels throughout the process and don’t consider restoration complete until everything is thoroughly dry and safe for your family.
