Class 1 water intrusion involves small-scale water damage, often affecting non-porous materials such as concrete or plywood. This can usually be addressed and recovered quickly by removing any excess water and using basic drying methods.

​

To avoid any long-term water damage, our process would require us to apply dehumidifiers or fans to dry affected areas.

Class 2 water damage impacts an entire room and porous materials, such as carpet, carpet pad, wood, and drywall, leading to significant moisture absorption. This can lead to swelling and breakdown of materials over time, if not addressed.

Without professional water damage mitigation, this can lead to significant structural damage. Restoration requires advanced drying techniques, dehumidification, and professional equipment to prevent mold growth, contamination, and further damage.

Class 3 water damage involves extensive water saturation of materials like ceilings, walls, insulation, and subfloors. In this scenario, water intrusion often results from sources such as broken pipes or heavy rain coming through a damaged roof.

​

This type of damage requires more extensive restoration, including water extraction, drying, and dehumidification--to prevent mold growth, structural damage, and further complications. Timely intervention is crucial for effective recovery.

Class 4 water damage is the most severe type, affecting materials with low permeability, such as hardwood, concrete, brick, and plaster, which absorb water deeply and are difficult to dry. This type of damage can cause significant structural deterioration if not addressed promptly. The restoration process involves specialized techniques like desiccant dehumidification and high-powered drying equipment to extract moisture from these hard-to-reach areas. Due to the complexity of the damage, the mitigation process will require longer drying times, demolition, and replacement of affected materials in order to thoroughly treat the affected areas.
