Understanding water
When your home or business suffers a water damage, understanding what type of water you are dealing with is crucial to ensure the proper clean up.
There are three types of water:
Clean water: usually from a broken pipe, or rainwater.
Gray water: gray water is slightly contaminated water. Gray water allows bacteria to grow, making the water hazardous.
Black water: black water is highly contaminated and filled with fungi, bacteria, chemicals, and more. Black water is typically caused by sewage. Black water should always be handled by a trained professional.
