Sewage Cleanup
in Helotes, TX
Sewage coming up through a shower drain or a toilet in your Helotes home is a health hazard, not a mess to mop up. We answer 24/7, we arrive in full protective gear, and we seal off the affected rooms before we extract anything. Whether your house drains to city sewer or to a septic tank on your property, the cleanup inside is the same: we remove the waste, take out what cannot be saved, disinfect, dry and put your home back together. Our crew heads northwest from our San Antonio office with the equipment already on the truck.

Our Proven 5-Step Sewage Cleanup Process
Stop the Flow and Find the Source
On the phone we tell you which fixtures to stop using. When we arrive we check whether the backup came from the sewer line or from a septic system, because that decides who fixes the cause. On a septic property we ask you to call your septic company to pump the tank while we start inside.
Seal Off the Affected Rooms
We put up plastic barriers and run air filtration so the contamination stays where it is. You, your family and your pets stay out of that part of the house while we work.
Extract the Waste and Remove What Cannot Be Saved
We pump out standing waste, then remove carpet, pad, baseboards and the lower part of any drywall the sewage touched. We list every item we take out, room by room, for your claim.
Clean and Disinfect Every Surface
We scrub and disinfect the slab, the wall framing, the cabinets and the fixtures. Nothing gets closed up until the surfaces are clean and the readings show the materials are dry.
Dry, Deodorize and Rebuild
Dehumidifiers and air movers dry the structure, and we treat the odor at its source. Then we replace drywall, flooring, trim and paint, and we walk the house with you before we call it done.
