Atlanta Water Damage Restoration Company Teaches "the Basics" Of Water Damage Restoration

Water damage describes a large number of possible losses caused by water intruding where it will enable attack of a material or system by destructive processes such as rotting of wood, growth, rusting of steel, de-laminating of materials such as plywood, and many, many others.

The damage may be imperceptibly slow and minor such as water spots that could eventually mar a surface, or it may be instantaneous and catastrophic such as flooding. However fast it occurs, water damage is a very major contributor to loss of property.

Water damage is typically classified into one of the following three categories:

Category 1- Clean Water (no contaminants)
Category 2- Grey Water (shower & sink drain water)
Category 3-Black Water (sewage & mold)

Different removal methods and measures are used depending on the category of water. As a general rule, a professional water restoration company should be called in if there is noticable damage(Restoration Specialists provides free estimates & inspections). These companies will use Thermal Imaging Cameras (Infrared) to look inside the walls and determine exactly the extent of the damage. Often water lurks behind baseboards, sheetrock, and studs and usually missed by homeowners. This often results in bacterial and mold issues.

Category 1 water can be removed using the combination of four basic principles.

1. Extraction: Extract as much standing water possible. Carpet padding should be removed if a professional company is not employing a top-down-drying method. If the water has sat more than 72 hours before drying has begun, the carpet should be removed as well.

2. Antimicrobial application: The application of antimicrobial disinfectants is recommended on all water losses.

3. High pressure air flow. The use of commercial drying units that exceed 2000cfm are recommended to force the moisture into the air. They should be setup every 8-12 linear feet around the perimeter
of the room.

4. Dehumidifiers. Commercial dehumidifiers that extract at least 200 pints per day should be setup
every 300 square feet. or 2400 cubic foot (if the ceiling is larger than 8’).

An average water loss will take 3-5 days to dry based on the % of water extracted and drying conditions.

Note: Failure to use all four principles listed above will likely result in the formation of mold.  Furthermore one of the main issues that leads to the water damage situations above is a roof leak!  If you suspect a roof leak, call our certified Atlanta Roofer and water damage restoration teams today!
