How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Edina
A musty smell after a backup points to hidden moisture. Call early, because that smell usually comes from material that needs to be cut out.
-
Pump out the standing sewage
Hoses carry the sewage to a proper disposal point. It never goes to a storm drain, a yard or a neighbor's property.
-
Map where the sewage went
Thermal imaging picks out cool, wet areas behind drywall. The crew confirms each one with a meter before any cutting starts.
-
Cut out and haul away what soaked
Wet drywall is cut out above the wet line, often well past the visible stain. The studs behind it stay and get cleaned.
-
Sanitize, dry and verify
Odor control follows the cleaning. A smell that lingers often means a wet spot remains, so the crew looks again instead of masking it.

Sewage Backup Removal Questions in Edina
Does a sewage backup in Edina need a plumber first?
A plumber clears the blockage and fixes the pipe, and a removal crew handles the sewage inside. Call both. Do not wait for the plumber to finish before calling for removal.

Can I call about Edina sewage at night?
Yes. The number, (888) 578-6508, works around the clock. Sewage keeps soaking in after dark, so a night call is worth making.
How far does sewage spread inside a Edina house?
It runs to the lowest level, then wicks up drywall and into subfloors. Moisture meters and thermal imaging show how far it went.
Does heavy rain cause sewage backups in Edina, MO?
