Why Wade’s Restoration of California Is Sunland’s Preferred Sewage Cleanup Company

Wade Ferris founded this company in 2007, and he still answers his own phone. That matters in Sunland, where a lot of homeowners have been through the ringer with big national outfits that quote one number on the phone and present a different one at the front door. Wade runs it differently. He publishes his name, his address, and his license number. He will tell you what the job costs before a screwdriver comes out, and if he says he’s going to be there, he shows up.

Ask anyone on your street. Sunland is a small-enough community that word gets around. We’ve cleaned sewage backups in the 91040 and 91041 ZIP codes for long enough that people know the name. Wade and his crew wear uniforms, they’re background-checked, and they work with professional-grade equipment from Dri-Eaz and Phoenix. When a 1950s ranch home on the hillside has a line break, we’ve likely seen that exact failure before, and we’ve likely fixed one two streets over.

One thing that sets us apart: Wade documents everything. Moisture readings taken every day, a full log handed to you at the end of the job. Almost nobody in this trade does that. It’s not a gimmick. It’s how you know the crawl space is actually dry, not just “looks okay.” And every water, fire, and mold restoration job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not done right, Wade makes it right. Simple as that.

We also deal directly with your insurance adjuster. You shouldn’t have to play telephone between two parties while your house smells like sewage. Wade talks to the adjuster, sends photos, sends moisture logs, and handles the back-and-forth. You focus on getting your house back.

Our Sewage Cleanup Services in Sunland

We handle the full range of Sewage Cleanup work in Sunland. Here’s what most of our Sunland calls involve.

Sewage Backup Cleanup

When a main line clogs and sewage pushes back through floor drains, tubs, or toilets, you need it out fast. In Sunland’s older homes, those lines are often original cast-iron from the 1950s and 1960s, and they fail under shifting soil, especially after winters when debris flows move the ground. We locate the backup, clear the source, extract contaminated water, and sanitize every affected surface. A typical sewer backup cleanup in a Sunland home runs $2,000 to $6,500 depending on how far the waste traveled and how many rooms it reached.

Toilet Overflow Cleanup

A toilet overflow is usually the first sign of a deeper problem, not the problem itself. In Sunland, root intrusion from mature trees in older yards is one of the most common causes we see. Roots work into sewer laterals over decades, and during heavy rain on the hillsides, saturated ground shifts and those roots finally choke the line. The toilet backs up because the pipe downstream won’t take the flow. We extract the contaminated water, remove affected flooring if needed, and dry and disinfect the space thoroughly. Expect $800 to $2,500 for a contained single-bathroom overflow, more if waste reached adjacent rooms or the subfloor.

Septic Failure Cleanup

Some Sunland properties on larger lots or on the edges of the community have septic systems rather than city sewer. When a septic tank overflows into the yard or backs up into the house, that’s raw sewage making contact with soil, concrete, and possibly your foundation. We remove the contamination, treat affected surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants, and dry the area to prevent mold from taking hold. Septic failure jobs in Sunland generally fall between $1,800 and $5,000, and many involve insurance coordination because the damage often extends into building materials.

Black Water Extraction

Not all water from a sewage event is the same. Black water, the category that contains human waste, is a genuine health hazard. Contact with skin can cause serious infection, and breathing the air in a contaminated crawl space carries risk. We use truck-mounted extraction equipment and professional-grade air movers from Dri-Eaz and Phoenix to pull black water out of crawl spaces, subfloor cavities, and finished spaces, then we dry and disinfect everything. If you have black water in your Sunland home, do not wade into it yourself. This is a job for trained professionals with the right protective equipment.

Common Sewage Cleanup Problems We See in Sunland Homes

• Legacy cast-iron sewer lines cracking under shifting soil. Sunland’s ranch homes were built in the 1940s through 1960s with cast-iron drain lines that have since corroded internally and become brittle. After post-fire debris flows move the soil, those pipes crack or separate, and sewage seeps into crawl spaces where nobody notices until the smell reaches the living room.
• Root intrusion in mature residential yards. Many Sunland properties have big, decades-old trees planted close to the house. Roots seek out the moisture in sewer laterals and eventually infiltrate the pipe. During winter rains on burned hillsides, the additional groundwater load pushes the line past capacity and toilets overflow.
• Crawl space contamination that goes unnoticed. Mid-century Sunland homes often have minimal crawl space ventilation. When a sewage backup releases moisture and bacteria into that space, it sits there, trapped. The subfloor wicks it up, mold starts, and the odor moves through the living space. By the time a homeowner calls, the contamination has usually spread beyond the original source.
• Post-fire sewage contamination from hillside runoff. This is the one that separates Sunland from the flat valley. After a fire strips the hillsides above Big Tujunga Canyon, ash, sediment, and hydrocarbon-laden runoff pour into the drainage system during the first significant rain. That runoff pushes into sewer lines, carries debris that clogs them, and creates sewage backups contaminated with fire residue, not just standard household waste.
