Sewage Cleanup in Edmonton

Only if your policy includes a sewer backup endorsement — it’s a common add-on in Alberta, not part of standard coverage, so check your policy or call your broker. If you have the endorsement, we document the loss, work with your adjuster, and bill your insurer directly, so a covered claim usually costs you just your deductible.

The usual culprits are spring snowmelt and heavy summer rain overwhelming the lines, tree roots growing into older sewer laterals, and grease or debris blockages. Homes in older Edmonton neighbourhoods with original clay lines are at higher risk. A backwater valve is the best prevention — many insurers offer discounts for installing one.

We don’t recommend it. Even a small backup contaminates porous materials — carpet, drywall, insulation — that look fine after wiping but hold bacteria inside. Proper cleanup means removing those materials and disinfecting with the right agents and protective equipment. An on-site assessment tells you exactly what the spill actually touched, and your quote follows if you want us to handle it.

Our response target is about 60 minutes in the Edmonton metro area, any hour of the day. A live specialist answers your call, tells you how to keep your family safe until we arrive, and dispatches the crew immediately.
