Did you know that one of the most significant issues regarding improper water removal in your home is mold growth? Homeowners that neglect to take immediate action or mishandle water removal can often experience unnecessary damages, lowered property values, or even severe risks to their health due to microbial growth. No one wants that to happen, so take this opportunity to understand more about what the benefits of contacting a professional can be.
Water removal technicians handle a variety of situations every day. A quality company, will only send trained personnel, that understands the categories of water damage and how they affect your property. If you are concerned that the source of your problem is anything other than a clean water source, you need IICRC-certified professionals, like those offered at SERVPRO of Palm Desert, who can help to handle and correct the situation quickly.
A Category 1 water damage, involves dealing with water coming from a clean or sanitary source. A broken water supply line, toilet tank, or water heater burst all fall into this category. However, just because the source was initially clean, does not mean that with time, the water cannot become contaminated. A Category 2 water damage, involves contaminants from an overflowing washing machine, toilet, or dishwasher. Lastly, a Category 3 water damage, consists of exposure to black water, better known as sewage.
SERVPRO technicians always take the time to explain what is happening on your property in detail. We want you to understand the problem and understand what needs to happen to get things under control. Each category of water is different and is mitigated differently as well.
