When a basement floor drain or toilet backs up, the water is contaminated with bacteria. Restoration companies call it Category 3 or black water. Carpet, pad and drywall it touches usually have to be removed, not just dried, and the area has to be cleaned and sanitized. This is not a shop vac job.

Do this right now

In this order.

  1. Keep everyone, especially kids and pets, out of the area.

  2. Stop using water in the house. Every flush and shower can push more up the drain.

  3. Don't touch the water without gloves and boots, and don't try to bleach it away yourself.

  4. Take photos and call. A crew with the right protective gear needs to handle cleanup.

Questions

Does insurance cover a sewer backup?

Not under a standard Minnesota homeowner's policy. Sewer and drain backup usually needs a separate water backup endorsement, often with a limit somewhere between $5,000 and $25,000. Check your policy, and if you don't have it, consider adding it.

Who fixes the cause of the backup?

A plumber or the city, depending on whether the blockage is in your line or the main. The restoration company handles cleanup and sanitizing in the house.

Are you the company that does the work?

No. We're a free referral service. When you call, we connect you with an independent local restoration company that serves your area. That company gives you the estimate and does the work.

Does it cost anything to call?

No. Calling and getting connected is free. The restoration company will give you an estimate before any work starts.

The sooner the water's out, the smaller the repair.
