The 3 Types of Water Damage
Depending on the source of your water damage, you could have hazardous pathogens in your home as a result of flooding. We provide residential restoration services for the following scenarios:
Category 1 Water Damage
Also known as clean water floods, these involve water that doesn't contain harmful pathogens and therefore isn't a threat. Examples are water from broken pipes, falling rain, or an overflowing sink or tub. Water may also come from rainwater or snowmelt. Since the water originates from a sanitary source, this type of damage is the least dangerous of the three categories. However, the water may come into contact with contaminants such as dirt or bacteria if left unattended. This can result in unsafe and unsanitary conditions and may escalate the damage from category 1 to category 2 or 3.
In most cases, a professional restoration team will be able to salvage a building that's experienced category 1 water damage. This generally involves removing excess water and drying out damaged drywall, flooring, and carpet.
Category 2 Water Damage
Category 2 or gray water floods come from significantly contaminated sources and can be very harmful to humans. The water could come from toilets, washing machines, aquariums, or dishwashers. Burst water beds and hydrostatic pressure seepage can also cause this type of damage. The pathogens found in these water sources are a serious risk to the health and safety of building inhabitants and left untreated, gray water can escalate to category 3 damage.
If you experience gray water flooding, it's vital to get in contact with a water damage restoration team immediately. Aside from removing excess water and drying floors and walls, your residential restoration team will also have the know-how and expertise to disinfect the damaged areas and protect you and your loved ones from illness.
Category 3 Water Damage
Black water or category 3 water damage is the most dangerous type of flooding your home can experience. Water sources that contain pathogenic agents from sewage, waste line backflows, streams, rivers, lakes, and hurricanes can cause this type of damage. If your home experiences black water flooding, you should evacuate immediately and contact a professional water damage restoration crew.
Technicians performing black water restoration must be trained in proper health and safety practices. In these cases, the restoration process usually includes the draining of excess water and the removal of damaged materials, including drywall, carpets, and hardwood floors. An extensive sanitation process and replacement of most surfaces will follow.
