Taylorsville homes built mostly from the 1960s through 1980s sit on older clay and cast-iron lines that crack or clog when tree roots push in from the semi-arid soil. When a main backs up, wastewater surfaces fast in basements along 4700 South and in the Bennion subdivision because the flat lots offer little natural drainage. Our crew at Taylorsville Sewage Cleanup Co reaches these addresses within the hour from our Salt Lake City shop and sets up extraction before the water migrates into finished floors.
Winter freezes followed by sudden warm spells send meltwater into already stressed laterals, especially near Redwood Road where the water table sits closer to the surface. Hot summer irrigation can overload the same lines when homeowners run sprinklers daily. We map each job to the exact street grid so pumps and air movers fit through narrow side yards common in Taylorsville Central without tearing up fences or driveways.
Service calls also cover the edges next to Murray and West Valley City where Taylorsville’s grid meets newer subdivisions. We extract, disinfect, and dry to the concrete so homeowners can see the slab is clean before any rebuild begins.

Sewage Cleanup in Taylorsville — Local Notes
- •Many Taylorsville Central homes have 4-inch clay laterals laid in the 1970s that crack when the ground heaves during freeze-thaw cycles.
- •Bennion lots are narrow with fenced side yards, so we use smaller portable extractors to reach rear cleanouts without removing gates.
- •Spring snowmelt from the benches above Redwood flows toward lower streets, pushing sediment into mains already carrying irrigation runoff.
- •Valley Fair Mall area parking lots drain into the same county lines that serve nearby residential blocks, creating shared backup points after heavy rain.
