Water Damage Restoration

Water damage restoration is the process of restoring your property after it has been damaged in any way by water. Water damage can come in many different forms and affect many different areas of your home.

There are three types of water damage classified by insurance companies.

1. Clean water damage is when the water that has damaged your home is
   safe and contains no contaminants, like when an appliance leaks.
   
2. Gray water is the kind of water damage that contains some contaminants that are not extremely serious to one’s health, but could be unpleasant. An example of gray water damage is a toilet overflowing.
   
3. The worst kind of damage that requires the most careful and deliberate water damage restoration is black water damage. Black water damage contains a lot of harmful contaminants, and it typically occurs as a result of a flood, storm surge, or major sewer problems.

We can help you restore your property after you experience any of these kinds of water damage.

Water damage can occur in visible ways. If your pipes burst in the winter, you may need water damage restoration. If you have a fire in your home, and firefighters come to put it out, you will have water damage. There are many different ways water damage can destroy your basement, from storm water causing floods, to moisture buildup.

Appliances can be the cause of everyday water damage to your home. If your washing machine overflows, your fridge or water heater begins to leak, or your dishwasher hose breaks, you may need to call us for an estimate on water damage restoration. We can repair the damage to your floors, walls, cupboards, or any other structure that may need it.

Possibly the most severe problem caused by water damage is mold. Mold loves a damp environment, and if your home is damaged by water, it is a prime spot for mold to grow. Depending on the amount of untreated mold in your home, it can cause moderate to severe health problems. Some of these health problems include:

 

Children, older people, and people who have chronic immune system problems are more susceptible to getting health problems because of mold.
