Local Sewage Cleanup You Can Reach in Minutes

The lake communities around Lakewood, Raintree Lake, and Lake Jacomo sit on high water tables, so finished basements in 64064 and 64086 are especially prone to seepage and sump failure when Cedar Creek rises after heavy M-291 corridor storms. We work every Lee's Summit ZIP code - 64063, 64064, 64081, 64082, and 64086 - and know the neighborhoods we serve, from Lakewood, Raintree Lake, Winterset, and Summit Fair, to the streets near Lake Jacomo, Longview Lake, and Downtown Lee’s Summit.

Lee's Summit is about 35 minutes east, across the state line in Missouri. Our trucks run the US-50, I-470, M-291, and M-150 corridors every day, so when a sewer line backs up in Lakewood, Raintree Lake, Winterset, and Summit Fair, we are already nearby - not dispatching a sub-contractor from another county. Every Lee's Summit job is handled by our own Jackson County crew, fully licensed in Missouri and insured.

Common questions

Does insurance cover sewer or drain backup?

Not under a standard policy. Sewer and drain backup is excluded unless you purchased a sewer or water-backup endorsement, which is an inexpensive add-on. If you carry that endorsement, the backup is covered up to its limit. Without it, the loss is usually denied, so it is worth checking your declarations page.

Is sewage backup dangerous?

Yes. Sewage backup is Category 3 (black) water that carries bacteria, viruses, and parasites that cause serious illness. It also releases harmful gases and contaminates everything porous it touches. Safe cleanup requires protective equipment, extraction, removal of contaminated materials, and antimicrobial treatment - not a mop and household cleaner.

How do you clean up a sewage backup?

Do not clean a sewage backup with a mop and household cleaner - it is Category 3 black water full of pathogens. Keep people and pets out, stop any water flow, and call a biohazard-trained crew. Safe cleanup means PPE, extraction, removing contaminated porous materials, and antimicrobial treatment, then verifying the space is decontaminated.
