Help With a Sewage Backup in New Berlin
Most sewage backups in New Berlin homes come up through the lowest drain in the house: a floor drain, a shower or a toilet on the bottom floor.

Sewage Water Extraction Work in New Berlin
Emergency Sewage Pump Out
Deep sewage water is removed first with trash pumps that can handle solids, so extractors can reach the floor.
Contaminated Flooring Removal
Once contaminated flooring is out, the subfloor or slab is scrubbed, treated and dried before new flooring is installed.
Sewage Backup Cleanup
Sewage that came up through floor drains, toilets or tubs is pumped out, solids are removed and the floor is cleaned before any drying begins.
Sewage Damage Sanitization
Floors, walls, cabinets and fixtures touched by sewage are cleaned with detergent first, then treated with a registered disinfectant.
Sewage Odor Removal
The smell comes from waste left in porous materials. Removing those materials and cleaning the hard surfaces does most of the work.
How to Tell Sewage Is Backing Up
Flies and Pests Near Drains
Drain flies or other insects gathering around a floor drain or bathroom can mean sewage is sitting where it should not be.
Toilet Water Level Changes
A toilet bowl that rises, drops or bubbles by itself can mean pressure in the drain line from a partial blockage.
Toilet Overflow That Will Not Stop
A toilet that overflows again after plunging, or overflows when another fixture drains, points to a blockage beyond the toilet.
Wet Drywall Near Bathrooms
Damp, stained or soft drywall next to a bathroom or laundry can mean a leaking drain inside the wall.
How Sewage Water Extraction Works in New Berlin
Step 1: Sort Belongings
Items that sewage touched are sorted into those that can be cleaned, such as hard plastics, and those that must be thrown out.
Step 2: Extract the Sewage
Sewage and dirty water are extracted from every affected room, starting where it is deepest.
Step 3: Contaminated Drywall Removal
Wet drywall and insulation are removed so the wall cavities can be cleaned and disinfected.
Step 4: Dry and Deodorize
Drying equipment runs with air scrubbers until materials are dry and the air no longer smells of sewage.
What Causes Sewage Backups in New Berlin Homes
Toilet and Fixture Clogs
A clogged toilet that keeps getting flushed can overflow sewage across the bathroom and into rooms nearby.
Grease Buildup
Cooking grease poured down drains hardens inside pipes, narrows them and leads to backups at the lowest fixture.
Septic System Problems
A full septic tank or a failing drain field can push sewage back into the house through the lowest drains.
Failed Backwater Valve
A backwater valve that sticks open or is missing lets sewage from the street line flow back into the home.
Sewage Water Extraction for Every Property in New Berlin, WI

Pricing Sewage Cleanup in New Berlin
The cost of sewage water extraction in New Berlin depends on how much sewage there is, how many rooms it reached and how much flooring and drywall must come out.
Amount of Sewage
A few inches across one room needs less pumping and extraction than sewage that spread across several rooms.
Rooms Affected
Each room the sewage reached needs extraction, material removal, disinfection and drying, which adds labor and equipment.
Access and Layout
Tight crawl spaces, finished floors and spaces under cabinets take longer to clean than an open concrete floor.
Does Insurance Cover Sewage Water Extraction?
Commercial policies vary on sewage backup coverage. Business owners should check with their agent about cleanup and lost business time.
Why Professional Sewage Extraction Pays Off
Homes and Businesses
The same cleanup steps apply to houses, condos, restaurants and offices, scaled to the size of the backup.
Clean Before Disinfecting
Surfaces are cleaned first and then disinfected, which is how disinfectants are meant to work.
Proper Disposal
Sewage and contaminated materials are removed and disposed of properly, not pumped onto the yard or left in the trash.
