Most Sewage Cleanup calls come in as an emergency — a backed-up line or overflowing fixture that's already spreading. Our South Lake Tahoe dispatchers get a crew moving immediately.
Talk To A Technician
These are the standards Trauma Clean Pros holds on every Sewage Cleanup call in South Lake Tahoe, from extraction through final drying.

We quote the Sewage Cleanup job after assessing contamination extent, so South Lake Tahoe clients know the cost before work starts.
Truck-mount extraction units, antimicrobial treatments, and industrial dehumidifiers travel with every Sewage Cleanup crew.
Every Sewage Cleanup job gets scoped after assessing contamination extent, since backup source and duration both affect the right approach.
We extract blackwater first, before any other remediation step, to stop the contamination from spreading further.
Carpet, padding, drywall, and insulation that absorbed blackwater are removed, since Category 3 water makes porous materials unsalvageable.
Antimicrobial treatment follows removal on every job, since bacteria remain a risk even after visible water is gone.
We track drying progress with moisture meters rather than guessing when a structure is actually dry.
We flag the likely cause of the backup so you know whether a plumber or the municipality needs to get involved.
Odor treatment is the final step, applied only after the underlying contamination has been fully addressed.
Call +1-844-401-0166 and a dispatcher asks about the extent of the backup and affected areas before a crew is routed.
