Water Damage Restoration Haddonfield • The water damage restoration process begins with a detailed inspection of your property, including a damage assessment. We will identify and stop the source of water, so that the drying process can begin, and also identify the type of water and scope needed to bring your home back to pre-loss conditions. The type of water contamination will affect the specific water damage restoration processes used to restore your property.

3. Categories of Water • Category 1 • Water from a clean source with no substantial risk of causing sickness or discomfort is said to be Category 1, or a clean water loss. In order to remain Category 1, water must not have been present for a substantial amount of time, and materials affected must be cleaned and maintained. Certain odors from the water damage loss can indicate that the water is not Category 1. Examples of Category 1 water include broken water supply lines, tub or sink overflows with no contaminants, and appliance malfunctions involving water supply lines. Once the water damage loss has been established as Category 1, the structural drying can proceed. It is possible to restore the structure to pre-loss conditions by thoroughly and rapidly drying materials, and only replacing materials which have permanent structural or aesthetic water damage.

4. Category 2 • Water that does carry a significant degree of chemical, biological and/or physical contamination is said to be Category 2. Aquarium leaks, waterbed leaks, toilet bowl overflows that contain urine, dishwasher leaks and washing machine overflows, and water which  enters the structure through hydrostatic pressure, like basement flooding causing minor or major water damage. With Category 2 water damage losses, special steps and procedures are necessary in order to return the structure to a pre-loss condition. Hot water extraction must be executed and the underlay of the carpet must be removed and disposed. Antimicrobials should also be used to mitigate growth of microorganisms especially when there are porous materials that are to be cleaned and restored. • Category 3 • When water intrusion results from a grossly unsanitary source, or carries pathogenic agents, it is said to be category 3. Examples of Category 3 water sources include discharge from toilets that originate from beyond the trap, sewer or septic system, and intrusions from the surface of ground water into the structure like flood water. Many procedures are necessary to address cleanliness and safety when dealing with category 3 water losses. Worker and occupant health and safety are the first priority on such losses as they are considered potentially hazardous when completing this type of water damage restoration project. Individuals with compromised immune systems, individuals who have undergone recent surgery or chemotherapy, and those whose immune systems are suppressed by conditions such as AIDS should be evacuated from the structure until it has been judged safe for occupancy. Various cleaning and decontamination procedures must be applied, while surfaces that are too be restored must be thoroughly cleaned.

5. Once the inspection and identification of the source has been remedied, the ater Damage Restoration Extraction Process will begin to remove all water from the structure. Then, any affected and unsalvageable materials will be properly removed and disposed of, prior to the complete disinfection of the envelope. This is when the Drying Process begins. Fans, Dehumidifiers, Injecti-Dry and other  types of cavity equipment will be used to return the structure pre-loss conditions to prevent further damage and the potential of mold growth.
