Example of Black Water Damage. Example of Black Water Damage.

This category of water is grossly contaminated and may be highly toxic to you and your family. Called Black Water, it may contain raw sewage, pesticides, heavy metals or toxic organic substances.

Unlike the Grey Water damage category, Black Water will have a foul smell and likely contain pathogenic, toxigenic, or other harmful agents.

Class of Water is determined by the probable rate of evaporation based on the type of materials affected, or wet, in the room or space that was flooded.  Determining the Class of Water is an important first step and will determine the amount and type of equipment utilized to dry-down the structure.

Our technicians are fully trained and licensed to not only identify this dangerous Black Water but they are also up to the task of removing and restoring your property to like new standards. Call today!
