When Your Sink or Tub Overflows

Flooded bathrooms are more common than you realize and often occur as the result of clogging or burst pipes. Spillage from tub or shower overflow can seep into walls and floorboards causing moisture damage as well as mold growth, leading to expensive repair costs and eventually mold growth.

Water that flows directly into your sink or tub contains minimal bacteria for consumption; however, standing water contains many strains of bacteria from soap scum residue and dirt deposits, with this bacteria feeding off wood products like floors, subfloors, subflooring panels, particle board etc. and leading to mold growth when there is an overflow. You have less than 48 hours to clean and dry these surfaces before mold starts growing on them - Water Damage Cleanup Eldersburg offers 24/7 Emergency Cleanup Solutions.

Category 2: “Gray Water”

Gray water contains measurable levels of bacteria contaminants that could cause intestinal discomfort and illness if consumed, according to studies done by scientists at Columbia University in 2015. Gray water, or Category 2 water as it's sometimes known, contains viruses and will quickly degrade into black water if left unused for too long. Sources of grey water include sink overflows, bathtubs, washing machines, dishwashers and toilets if their overflows occur.

Certified Technicians wear personal gear and protective equipment compliant with OSHA, EPA and IICRC guidelines to comply with OSHA, EPA, and IICRC cleanup guidelines and will treat this type of cleanup as though it were Category 3, so as to decontaminate any pathogens present in order to fully decontaminate it.

Category 3: “Black Water”

Black water is one of the most dangerous flood waters. Filled with bacteria, disease-causing viruses, feces, grease, hazardous materials, drug residues and pesticides - which may all pose health threats - black water is known as Category 3 water and should never be consumed directly; call in professionals that wear PPE suits and face masks to keep you and their staff safe from contamination and keep these backups under control quickly and immediately.
