Country Village, Bothell, WA Sewer Backup Cleanup
Now Midtown: 3 sewer pockets and a written estimate after inspection.
Country Village Sewage Cleanup
Sewer backup cleanup in Country Village, Bothell now means the subarea the city calls Midtown. The December 2024 plan adopted that name after the Country Village center closed in 2019. Sewer service reaches 3 pockets here and other parcels remain unserved, so your address decides your first contact.
A sewage backup in the Country Village area also meets a mixed housing stock. The plan reports a larger share of manufactured homes, condos, and townhomes than the city overall. Say on the call whether your water comes from a private well, so your restoration company can note it.

Which Country Village Sewer Utility Serves Midtown Addresses?
The Country Village sewer utility is Alderwood from Canyon Heights north and through the middle of Midtown, including Lake Pleasant RV Park. The City of Bothell serves 2 multifamily complexes at the south end, and other parcels have no sewer service. Your provider takes the main sewer line backup report, and your restoration company asks for its name.
Does a Private Well Change a Midtown Sewage Backup Call?
Yes, a private well adds a detail to give on a Midtown sewage backup call. The city says private wells serve much of the King County portion, and this site holds no source on wells and backups. Tell your restoration company your water source, so its written scope notes the well.
Midtown Repairs Stay With One City Permit Center
Midtown repairs stay with the City of Bothell Permit Center on both sides of the county line. The office follows city limits, not ZIP 98011 or ZIP 98021. Unincorporated land outside those limits uses a county office instead, as the Bothell West page explains.
Painting, tiling, carpeting, and similar finish work sit on the city's exempt list when accessible features stay unaltered, and exempt work still meets code. A concealed drain pipe replacement needs a permit and inspection, and electrical permits come from Washington L&I. Ask your restoration company which line items in its estimate fall on each side of that list.
Local Backup Sources and What Your Restoration Company Does
Townhomes, 2 City-served complexes, highway businesses, and unserved parcels each appear in Midtown's records, and your restoration company starts each one with an inspection.
| Backup situation | What your restoration company does |
|---|---|
| A townhome on the former Country Village land backs up | Inspects the shared walls of the row, since HeraldNet reports about 92 townhomes there, and uses condo sewage backup questions for the association. |
| One of the 2 City-served multifamily complexes at the south end backs up | Notes the City as your provider, with Public Works at 425-488-0118 and after-hours Police non-emergency at 425-577-5656. |
| A business along the Bothell-Everett Highway backs up | Scopes commercial sewage cleanup on the nine-mile highway corridor and asks which county's health office covers the address. |
| An unserved parcel shows sewage indoors from an on-site system | Inspects the indoor damage and leaves sewer extension to the city, whose plan promotes it for unserved parcels; Westhill also holds parcels on septic. |
Who Repairs the Side Sewer on a Midtown Lot?
Your provider answers who repairs the side sewer on a Midtown lot, because neither Bothell's code section nor Alderwood's pages gave this site a rule. City-served complexes ask Public Works at 425-488-0118, and Alderwood addresses ask 425-743-4605. Tell your restoration company that answer, so its scope and the pipe work stay separate.
Can a Manufactured Home in Midtown Get Sewage Cleanup?
Yes, a manufactured home in Midtown can get sewage cleanup, and the plan puts a larger share of them here. Bothell counts 12 manufactured housing communities in all. Your restoration company lists what comes out under sewage-damaged drywall and flooring removal, so ask who holds the park's sewer line.
