Who do I call to report a sewer backup?

If wastewater is backing up only when you are using water, the plug is likely in your service line and you should call a qualified sewer cleaning contractor to service the line. If wastewater is backing up when no water is being used in your building, the city sewer may be plugged and you should call the city immediately. When in doubt, call the city first during normal business hours, call Public Works at 651-454-4059, and after hours, call Dakota County Dispatch at 651-322-2323.
