Local Sewage Cleanup You Can Reach in Minutes

Lenexa drains toward Mill Creek and the Lake Lenexa watershed, and the newer Falcon Valley and Canyon Creek subdivisions sit on graded clay that pushes stormwater toward finished basements when downpours overwhelm the K-10 and 87th Street drainage. We work every Lenexa ZIP code - 66215, 66219, 66220, 66227, and 66285 - and know the neighborhoods we serve, from Old Town Lenexa, Falcon Valley, Canyon Creek, and Cedar Station, to the streets near Lenexa City Center, Black Hoof Park at Lake Lenexa, and the Lenexa Public Market.

Lenexa is home to our base, so we are only minutes away. Our trucks run the I-435, I-35, K-10, 87th Street Parkway, and Prairie Star Parkway corridors every day, so when a sewer line backs up in Old Town Lenexa, Falcon Valley, Canyon Creek, and Cedar Station, we are already nearby - not dispatching a sub-contractor from another county. Every Lenexa job is handled by our own Johnson County crew, fully licensed in Kansas 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.
