How much do damage do you really have?

Pro-Clean Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning will assess the water damage and take the appropriate steps to bring your home back to normal. Our trained technicians will educate you on the extent of the damage, what type of restoration response you should take and answer any questions you may have along the way. We will categorize water damaged home into three categories:

Category 1- A clean water source is one that does not pose substantial harm to humans. Examples of clean water source water damage may include: broken water supply lines, tub or sink overflows with no contaminants. Water damage can be restored assuming that there is a quick response, a thorough extraction of the carpet is accomplished and adequate drying equipment is used.

Category 2- Unsanitary or "gray" water contains some degree of contamination. Potentially, it could cause substantial discomfort or sickness if consumed by humans and it carries microorganisms or nutrients for microorganisms. Category 2 water damage may include discharge from dishwashers or washing machines, overflows from toilet bowls or punctured water beds. Carpet in Category 2 water damage can be restored assuming that there is quick response, a thorough extraction of the carpet is accomplished and adequate drying equipment is used. In this type of water damage situation, where the carpet is installed over hardwood flooring, it is recommended that the carpet be taken off-site for drying in order to facilitate drying of the hardwood flooring. In addition to Category 2 water damage, the carpet must be thoroughly cleaned and the cushion must be removed.

Category 3- This type of water damage is often referred as "black" water – "Black" water always contains pathogenic agents. "Black" water sources are those that arise from sewage or other contaminated water entering a structure. This category of water damage includes all forms of sea water, ground surface water, and rising water from rivers or streams. Carpets in Category 3 water damage must be removed.
