WATER DAMAGE

Water damage happens for a variety of reasons, including plumbing leaks, burst or broken pipes and hoses, washing machine overflow, a clogged toilet, moisture behind walls, a leaking roof, or foundation cracks.
There are three categories of water involved in a water damage situation. The category will help determine the proper water restoration method used by our professionals.
Category 1 water is known as clean water or white water. It is the fresh water that is pumped into the home, which means a Category 1 water damage source could be an overflowing bathtub or sink, broken water supply lines, including dishwasher or washing machine malfunctions that involve the water line, or a damaged faucet. After 48 hours, a Category 1 can become a Category 2. Category 2 water is commonly known as gray water. Gray water is wastewater from sinks, bathtubs, and showers, as well as water that is discharged by washing machines and dishwashers. Gray water will likely have significant contamination, and can pose a health risk. Due to quick bacteria and mold growth, Category 2 becomes a Category 3 if left untreated for 2 days or more. Category 3 water is known as black water. The primary source of black water is sewage. Black water also occurs during a flood, due to the potential for chemicals found in fertilizers, animal waste, ground debris, and other contaminated areas. Black water has disease-causing organisms or toxins, and is wholly unsanitary.
SEWAGE DAMAGE

Occasionally you can repair sewage backup damage yourself depending on the severity of the leak, but more often professional sewer damage restoration is needed to properly disinfect and sanitize affected areas to prevent microbial development. If left untreated, sewer water damage can cause serious health problems, especially in children and elderly people, as well as in those who suffer from chronic respiratory problems or weakened immune systems. Exposure to waste water from a sewage backup can result in a number of diseases, including Hepatitis A, Tetanus and Giardia.

It is essential that all of the infected areas are treated, whether it be floorboards, carpets, walls or furniture.
