Cleaning up a sewage backup in Clarendon Hills

Sewage is the dirtiest water a house can take on, so the rule is plain: porous material it touched comes out, and hard surfaces get cleaned and treated. That means carpet and pad, the bottom of the drywall and any wet insulation leave the house, while concrete, block and tile are scrubbed and given an antimicrobial. After that the space is dried with dehumidifiers and air movers, and we read the moisture every day until it shows dry. Then we put back what came out.

We cover Clarendon Hills from Ogden Avenue, Route 83 and 55th Street, and the streets around the Metra station are part of our regular DuPage County route. If the backup came up in an unfinished laundry or utility area, less has to come out, because bare concrete and block walls can be cleaned and treated in place. Where that drain sits next to a finished room, we check the drywall and carpet on the other side of the wall with a meter before deciding what goes. Shelving, boxes and anything else stored on the floor get moved to a dry spot, or photographed before they are hauled off with your okay.

Sewage Backup Cleanup by ONIT Solutions

Included in a Clarendon Hills sewage cleanup

Extraction first

We pull up the standing water and what came with it before cleaning starts, so the floor can actually be cleaned.

Contents moved and protected

Stored items near the backup are carried to a dry area, and anything ruined is photographed for your claim before it goes.

Porous materials out

Carpet, pad, the lower cut of drywall and wet insulation are removed and hauled away.

Concrete and block cleaned

Bare floors and foundation walls are scrubbed, rinsed and treated with an antimicrobial.

Meter readings through the wall

We read the drywall and floor in the rooms beside the backup, so a finished room next door does not hide wet material.

Repairs to match

Drywall, trim, flooring and paint go back in once everything reads dry.

FAQ

Sewage Backup Cleanup in Clarendon Hills: questions

What should I do before you get here?
Keep everyone off the wet floor, and keep kids and pets upstairs until we have cleaned it. Hold off on flushing, showering, laundry and the dishwasher, since more water down the drains can push more back up. You do not need to start scrubbing or moving things yourself. Call or text (815) 585-1750 and send a photo of where it came up.
Is a sewage backup covered by my insurance?
Some policies cover it, and many do not unless a sewer or water backup endorsement was added. Your declarations page or your agent can tell you which one you have. We do not promise coverage or payment, but you get photos, readings and a line-by-line estimate to send your carrier.
Does Clarendon Hills require a permit for this work?
Cleanup, removal and drying generally do not. Rebuilding walls or any plumbing or electrical work can, and where the Village of Clarendon Hills requires a permit, we pull it and schedule the inspection.
How long does sewage cleanup take?
Extraction, removal and cleaning start once we are there, and drying runs until the readings show dry, which depends on how much the water spread. We set the rebuild dates after the scope is agreed.
Do you work outside Clarendon Hills?
Yes. We handle sewage backups in Hinsdale, Westmont and Downers Grove as well.
