What City Sewer Backup Cleanup Includes in New Bremen
Every City Sewer Backup Cleanup job has the same goal: a clean, sanitized, dry structure. The crew maps the moisture, takes daily readings and keeps going until they pass. New Bremen callers reach Sewer Backup Cleanup Team around the clock.
Heavy rain, grease, roots or a blocked main can push sewage back up the public sewer and into basements along the street. The cause is outside the house, but the sewage is inside it. Cleanup cannot wait for the street work.
When no new sewage is coming up, a cleanup crew can start the pump-out before the plumber finishes. If the pipe is still spilling, the plumber has to open it first, or the crew would be pumping against the flow. Say which case you have when you call.

How City Sewer Backup Cleanup Works in New Bremen
-
Extract the sewage
Standing sewage is the first thing to go. The extraction specialist picks a pump for the depth and a wand tool for carpet and tight corners, and keeps going until the floor stops giving up liquid.
-
Map where it traveled
Sewage rarely stays where it came in. The crew checks the base of every wall near the affected rooms and records the readings for the job file.
-
Cut out what it soaked
Hauling contaminated materials out takes planning. The crew keeps bags sealed and moves them along a protected path, so nothing drips across clean floors.
-
Sanitize, dry and check
Rebuild work waits for the dry readings. Once the structure passes, the homeowner can get drywall, paint and flooring quoted with confidence.
