Raw sewage cleanup means pumping or scooping out wastewater from toilets, drains and sewer pipes, removing materials that absorbed it, and sanitizing what is left. It differs from ordinary cleaning because the liquid itself is the hazard.
Did a drain, toilet or septic system overflow indoors in Juneau Town? Call Juneau Town Biohazard Cleanup Help. The cleanup team works discreetly, explains each step to you and keeps family members, tenants and staff out of the contaminated zone in Milwaukee County.
About 58% of households in Milwaukee rent, so sewage backups often involve a landlord, a property manager and a tenant at once. Clear documentation of the cleanup helps everyone. Many homes in Milwaukee, about 84%, date from before 1980. Older plumbing is a common source of backups, and older flooring and trim soak up sewage deeply.
A typical sewage & biohazard cleanup job includes:
Residents, tenants and staff are moved out of the area while the crew sets up protective gear and containment.
Wastewater is taken out of the building, and standing liquid in crawl spaces or low corners is cleared.
Framing, subfloor and concrete are cleaned and treated, since sewage can soak into surfaces that look dry.
Disinfectant is applied to every affected surface, the space is dried and aired out, and the crew inspects the finished work.
Sewage & biohazard cleanup in Juneau Town, Milwaukee, WI typically costs $1,500 to $10,000, depending on the size of the affected area and the materials involved.

Common signs include a sewer smell in the yard or crawl space, soft or damp ground near the foundation, gurgling drains and slow drains in several fixtures at once. A plumber can confirm the leak. Once it is found, a cleanup team can take care of the contaminated soil, materials and odor.
Keep people and pets out, turn off power if water is near outlets, and avoid touching the sewage. Safe cleanup needs protective gear, extraction, removal of soaked materials and disinfection. For anything more than a small spill, a cleanup company is the safer choice.
Yes. Raw sewage is Category 3 contamination and can carry bacteria, viruses and parasites. That is why cleanup crews wear protective gear and remove porous materials instead of just drying them.
A septic overflow is cleaned as raw sewage, both inside any affected building and on nearby ground. Contaminated soil, materials and surfaces are handled and disinfected. A septic service may also need to empty or repair the tank.
Concrete is porous, so sewage soaks in. The surface is scrubbed, rinsed and treated with a disinfectant, and the wash water is collected rather than spread. Stubborn odor may need a second round of treatment.
Plumbers usually clear the blockage or repair the pipe, but most do not remove contaminated materials or disinfect the space. A sewage cleanup company picks up where the plumber stops, and the two jobs often happen in sequence.
