Sewage Backup Cleanup in Montgomery, IL

Montgomery sewage cleanup, basement or crawl space

Sewage cleanup means taking out the materials that absorbed the backup and cleaning everything that did not. Carpet, pad, insulation and the wet lower part of the drywall are removed and taken away. Hard surfaces are scrubbed and treated with antimicrobial, and air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure while we log the moisture every day. ONIT Solutions does the drying and the rebuild, so one company carries the job from the first call to the final walkthrough.

We cover Montgomery on both the Kane and Kendall County sides, working off Route 30, Route 31 and Orchard Road. If your house sits on a crawl space instead of a basement, a backup under the floor soaks the vapor barrier and any insulation between the joists. Both come out, the joists and the underside of the floor are cleaned, treated and dried, and new insulation and a new barrier go in. We check the wood with a meter before anything is closed up, so nothing gets sealed in wet.

Montgomery sewage backup cleanup includes

Water extracted

We pull up the standing water in the basement or crawl space before removal.

Crawl space barrier and insulation

A soaked vapor barrier and the insulation between the joists are removed and replaced.

Drywall, carpet and pad

In a basement, the materials the backup touched are cut out and taken away.

Joists and slab treated

Wood framing and concrete are cleaned and treated with antimicrobial, then dried.

Meter checks before closing

We read the wood before new insulation goes in, so nothing is sealed up wet.

Put back together

Insulation, barrier, drywall, flooring and trim are installed to finish the job.

How a Montgomery sewage cleanup is run

We write a free estimate before any work starts, with each part of the job on its own line. Every drying machine has a daily rate in writing before it is set up, and we pull it the day the readings show dry. If we find damage nobody could see, it gets a written price, and you approve it before we do it. The rebuild goes on the schedule after drying, and we walk it with you when it is finished.

FAQ

Sewage Backup Cleanup in Montgomery: questions

What should I do before you get here?

Stay away from the backup and keep kids and pets in a dry part of the house. Don't flush or run any water until we have looked at it. If the water is under the house in a crawl space, do not go in after it, and call or text us with what you can see from the access door.

Is a sewer backup covered by homeowners insurance?

Some policies cover it, and others only do through a separate sewer or water backup endorsement. Read your declarations page or call your agent to know where you stand. We do not promise coverage or payment, but our estimate is written line by line in the format carriers use, and you get copies of the photos and readings.

Does Montgomery require a permit for the repairs?

The cleanup itself usually does not. If the rebuild includes framing, electrical or plumbing, the village often requires a permit, and we pull it and schedule the inspections where Montgomery requires them.

How long does a crawl space cleanup take?

It depends on how much material has to come out and how fast the wood dries once it is treated. We take readings every day, pull the equipment when they show dry, and then put the insulation and barrier back.
