Understanding Different Types of Water Damage
Before diving into our restoration process, it’s important to understand the various types of water damage that can affect properties. These include:
- Clean Water Damage: Originates from sanitary sources like leaky faucets or broken pipes. While not immediately harmful, it requires prompt attention to prevent escalation.
- Gray Water Damage: Comes from slightly contaminated sources such as dishwashers or washing machines. It can pose health risks and requires more careful handling.
- Black Water Damage: The most severe form, often resulting from sewage backups or natural disasters. This type contains harmful contaminants and requires immediate and specialized remediation.
Recognizing the type of water damage helps in implementing the most effective restoration strategy.
Our 8 Steps for Water Damage Cleanup and Restoration
With our expertise and dedication, we follow a comprehensive 8-step process to help your property recover from water damage, ensuring that you can regain peace of mind along the way.
1. Inspection
The first phase of any restoration is to locate the affected area and identify the cause of water damage. This helps in determining:
- What has been damaged
- The extent of damage that occurred
- What can be salvaged
- What needs to be repaired
A thorough documentation of the inspection process is done, and a report is submitted within 24 hours for a smooth and legal restoration process.
2. Water Extraction
After a meticulous inspection, the first and foremost order of business will be to remove any standing water from your property. Once your property is arid, it makes it easier for our water damage experts to pinpoint the source of water damage.
3. Preventing Secondary Damages
To prevent any further damage, water damage management is done as soon as your property becomes dry. We utilize best-in-class instruments to release any trapped water from your property's ceilings, floors, carpets, or walls.
4. Drying Procedure
Any material, such as carpet underlays, wall sidings, and more, that has not been dried in the previous processes, is at risk of odor and mold growth. We use fans, dehumidifiers, and more advanced technologies to protect your property from disasters. This helps us dry out every nook and cranny of your property correctly. This is known as the ``dryout`` process.
5. Monitoring
During the drying process, our water damage technicians ensure to monitor and document every step. We use measuring devices to check the moisture readings in affected areas and work the equipment accordingly.
6. Completion
Once the moisture and humidity levels are in control, our water damage experts take the fans and humidifiers out of your property and consider the emergency water damage process complete.
7. Sanitizing And Cleaning
Final cleaning is conducted once every place in your property is dried to the T. The cleaning process includes
- Sanitizing the area
- Eliminating any bacterial growth
- Deodorization to get rid of unwanted odor
8. Mold Prevention
The risk of mold growth escalates whenever your property suffers water damage due to any factor. Our water damage experts understand this and are equipped with high-quality technology to remove water damage and prevent mold growth by disinfecting and sealing the affected area.
