How to Handle Water Damage Restoration

One of the disasters most homeowners face is the damage caused by water. Floods, natural disasters, busted pipes, and leaking sewer lines are all possible causes. Regardless of the reason, the experience is harrowing.  If you encounter these issues, here is a guide that will assist you in dealing with water damage restoration.

Categories of Water Damage

The following are the different types of water damage:

Clean Water

This kind of water comes from a portable source and poses no health risks when consumed. When there is a break in the water line system or natural sources such as rainwater or ice melting, this happens.

Gray water

This kind of water is a contaminated type and should not be consumed by humans. This water contains a toxic chemical substance that is not suitable for the body.

Blackwater

This kind of water is entirely contaminated and, if not treated, can cause severe illness and lead to property damage. Sewage, dirty water from rivers and streams, and toilet overflow are all potential sources of this water.

Water Damage Restoration

It’s difficult to think clearly after your house has flooded because of the chaos. Knowing what to do in the aftermath, on the other hand, can help you relax and ensure that the cleanup and restoration process goes as smoothly as possible. Here’s a checklist to help you stay on track during the water damage restoration process:

1. Contact your insurance company

To report a flood in your home, contact your flood insurance provider, or if you don’t have flood insurance, your homeowner’s insurance provider. Take pictures of the damage to serve as proof. Keep damaged items to show the adjuster that you didn’t lose them. You will sign a proof of loss statement after the adjuster has completed the inspection and assessment of the damage.

2. Turn off all electrical devices

For the safety of the people inside the property, turn off the gas and electrical systems before entering.

3. Contact a Water Damage Restoration Service Provider in Your Area

Your local water damage restoration service providers are trained professionals who will respond quickly to your emergency to remove water and thoroughly dry your home. They have water restoration specialists who are highly trained, have the most up-to-date restoration equipment, and have the know-how to make your house feel like home again. An expert technician will inspect the damage and determine what needs to be repaired. To assess the seriousness of the damage to the walls, floors, ceiling, and other things in the house, thorough inspections are usually done.

In the past, I have used several companies around Atlanta but will only use Waste Removal USA from now on. From the person who answers the phone to the drivers who deliver, everyone was very professional and helpful. They are flexible and really have an appreciation for their customer's needs.
