Questions about the different types of water damage that can happen in your property? Many of the most common types of water damage emergencies we respond to are “Sudden and Accidental”, and can include events such as a pipe breaking in ceiling, a fitting behind a shower cracking, or water heater line bursting. These types of water damage emergencies are considered CAT 1 clean water losses, and are typically covered by insurance. Clean water damage means that most items will be able to salvaged that encounter the water. These items include but are not limited to drywall, hardwood flooring, carpet, ceilings, and clothing. Brothers Restoration uses state of the art pressurized wall cavity drying equipment that employs air and heat to quickly evaporate moisture. These devices are installed routinely behind baseboards to hide the holes required to insert the drying tubes into wall cavities. Centrifugal air movers and commercial grade dehumidifiers are typically always employed, and may need to stay in operation for 3-5 days or until water damaged areas are back to the dry standard.
Other, more severe water damages losses such as CAT 2 or CAT 3 means that materials such as drywall and carpet will likely need to be removed, as bacteria levels are high and the health risk to severe. Also, the possibility of mold damage is higher with these types of losses. Examples of these types of losses are toilet overflows after a flush, sewage backups, and ground water entering the home or flooding. Many of these water damage emergencies are still covered by insurance, but you need to act quickly to keep your family safe in these circumstances. Brothers Restoration uses the proper equipment, protective equipment, and chemicals to mitigate all three types of water damage. All flooring, framing, and salvageable belongings will be treated with a broad-based disinfectant to ensure bacterial is killed and odors do not remain. Two foot or four foot cuts to drywall will likely be performed, containments will be set in place using HEPA air scrubbers to filter out contaminants and keep your family safe during the water damage mitigation process.
After the water is extracted, any demolition completed, and drying equipment set, the most important part of our job is to do a daily monitoring of the structure and all drying equipment. Brothers Restoration will monitor every dehumidifier’s inlet and outlet readings, as well as take humidity readings outside of the structure as well as inside. Various moisture meters will be used to check levels of moisture in building materials such as wood framing, sub flooring, and drywall. All these readings and daily moisture logs will be submitted to the insurance company to verify that the dry out process is progressing daily, and that equipment not be needlessly placed. Brothers Restoration will also take pictures of all non-salvageable items in the home such as mattresses, furniture, etc. These items will be submitted to your insurance company for evaluation and possible compensation.
