Sewage Water Extraction

We arrive in Chicago fast for sewage backups, even at 2 AM. Our truck-mounted vacuums suck out every drop of contaminated water from basements and slabs. No partial jobs—we extract from cracks, drains, and hidden spots. In Chicago's old homes, this prevents further flooding from Lake Michigan storms. We log water levels for your insurance claim. Full extraction means no standing sewage left behind. Call us at (888) 312-8845 for 24/7 response.

Contaminated Material Removal

Chicago sewage overflows leave soaked carpets, drywall, and furniture we remove right away. We cut out ruined drywall up to 18 inches high and haul it out safely. Porous items like rugs and pads go straight to disposal—no salvage if contaminated. Our team wears PPE to bag and truck everything per local regs. This stops mold growth in humid Chicago summers. We document removals with photos for insurers. Clean slate for rebuilding starts here.

Deep Cleaning & Disinfection

After extraction, we scrub every surface with EPA-approved disinfectants killing bacteria and viruses. Chicago winters trap germs in basements—we deep clean floors, walls, and studs. Hot water extraction for any remaining soft surfaces. Multiple applications ensure no biohazards linger. We test surfaces for cleanliness before calling it done. Families get safe homes back quick. Professional sanitization beats DIY every time.

Structural Drying & Dehumidification

We set up industrial air movers and dehumidifiers to dry Chicago structures bone-dry. Wet walls and floors from sewage need 3-5 days of constant monitoring.

Full dry-out before rebuild—insurance loves our reports. No shortcuts on this step.

Save time and avoid injury by calling us instead. DIY often costs more in the long run.
