Common household sources of water damage

Mold Growth from Water Damage

Mold loves moisture. Mold stains can easily form on organic materials that get wet and aren’t able to dry. Drying, dehumidification and mold removal are often required to eliminate the problem.

The scope of water damage restoration depends largely upon the source of the water and types of materials affected. Professional water damage remediation specialists recognize three categories of water source.

  • Category 1 results from a clean or sanitary source, such as a water heater, a burst water heater or dishwasher hose, or clean water in a toilet tank.
  • Category 2 water contains some level of contaminants, such as washing machine and dishwasher overflow.
  • Category 3 water, sometimes known as black water, is from unsanitary sources, such as sewage, rivers, sea, and standing water with microbial populations.

Water damage can range from minor to serious

Water damage may also be defined by the types of materials affected by flooding.

  • Class 1 damage is relatively limited, such as the corner of a room. Materials in contact with the water are not very porous and may include structural wood, hardwood flooring, and ceramic tile. Evaporation is minimal.
  • Class 2 water damage may encompass an entire room and has soaked into porous materials, such as carpeting and upholstered furnishings.
  • Class 3 damage is often due to water coming into lower floors from overhead, such as when an upstairs bathroom leaks undetected for a lengthy period of time. Walls, ceilings, insulation, carpeting, and sub-floor have become saturated.
  • Class 4 damage is when water has infiltrated materials that are difficult to dry, such as concrete and plaster.
