☎ Call (763) 294-5325What we do for a sewage backup
Our restoration technicians work in full protective equipment. We contain the area, extract the contaminated water, and remove porous materials that cannot be disinfected, carpet, pad, and affected drywall, then clean and apply an antimicrobial to every surface it touched. Heavy water ties into water extraction, and a flooded lower level into basement flooding cleanup. We dry the structure to a verified reading before we release it.
Do not clean sewage yourself
Category three water is a real health hazard. Keep people and pets away, do not run the HVAC, and let a crew in proper PPE contain and disinfect it.
Why sewage is a safety job, not a mop job
Category three water requires disposal and disinfection standards that a mop and a bucket cannot meet, which is why we treat it as a health-and-safety job first. The EPA and the Ready.gov flood guidance both stress keeping people away from contaminated water and letting trained crews handle it.

(763) 294-5325Talk to a Maple Grove dispatcherIs a sewage backup dangerous?
Yes. It is category three black water carrying bacteria and pathogens, a genuine health hazard. Keep people and pets away and let a crew in proper PPE handle it.
Can I clean up sewage myself?
We strongly advise against it. Category three water needs containment, proper removal, disinfection, and disposal that household cleaning cannot safely provide.
What has to be thrown away?
Porous materials that soaked up contaminated water, carpet, pad, and affected drywall and insulation, usually cannot be disinfected and are removed. Hard surfaces are cleaned and treated.
Is sewage cleanup covered by insurance?
Water and sewer backup coverage is often a separate endorsement, so check your policy. We document the loss thoroughly for your claim either way.
Will the smell go away?
Yes. Once the contaminated materials are removed and every surface is cleaned, disinfected, and dried, the odor goes with them.
How fast can you respond?
We dispatch 24/7 and reach most Maple Grove homes fast, because contaminated water is both a health hazard and a spreading loss.
