Types of Water Damage That Can Affect Your Home or Business
There are three different types of water damage that can occur: clear, black, or gray water.
Clear has not come in contact with any contaminants and is not dangerous to handle.
Gray isn’t necessarily toxic, but has been used for cleaning, laundry, showering, dishes, etc., and may have come in contact with skin follicles or hair, and fats from food.
Black is water that has directly come in contact with fecal matter. It can be infested with pathogens and bacteria and make you or your family seriously ill if tampered with.
Leaks in the Building
A leak in your building can be insidious in that you don’t recognize it until the damage is significant. A leaky pipe or water heater won’t appear to be a big deal until there’s already a huge puddle on the ground.
Flooding
Flooding can do more than ruin your furniture: it can soak into your hardwood floors or carpet, damaging them beyond repair. If hardwood warps, it is unsalvageable.
It’s important to dry the affected areas before any long-term damage occurs to the wood or carpet.
Post Fire
Fires can cause pipes or heaters to burst, leaving large amounts of water in their wake. It’s also possible that firefighters can damage property with high-pressure hoses.
Our All Dry USA can treat extensive water damage as the result of a previous fire.
