Most people know that floods, broken water mains and other plumbing problems can cause water damage. But, did you know that water damage can also be caused by a fire? Most fires are put out with water, so water damage can also occur as a result of a fire.
When a flood or other water emergency occurs, call Denver Carpet Cleaning at (303) 395-1795 immediately. There is no time to waste. Any delays in loss mitigation and restoration may result in adverse health and safety issues, as well as additional damage to the building's structure and your personal belongings. And, your insurance may not cover the damages if you wait too long to contact the certified and highly trained professionals at Denver Carpet Cleaning.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says, "Stop the water leak quickly and begin restoration during the first 24 hours. It is important to dry water damaged areas and items within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth".
The Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration (IICRC) have developed the industry standard for water damage mitigation: the IICRC S-500. This document classifies water damage into three categories: Category 1, Category 2 and Category 3.
With Category 1 water damage, if you know the source of the damage, you can shut it off. For example, if the pipe to your hot water heater bursts, you can shut off the knob to the pipe leading to the hot water heater. This will help lessen the damage done. Then, call (303) 395-1795 ASAP! There are health risks involved with Category 2 and Category 3 water damage. The best course of action to take in these cases is to call (303) 395-1795 immediately. Don't try touching anything or trying to clean up the damage yourself or you could end up becoming very ill due to the contamination.
