Water Damage Categories

Water damage is categorized based on the health threat is poses. It is important to realize that water damage can quickly go from a Category I to a Category III if not treated because mold and bacteria will grow.

Category I Water Damage Cleanup: This category refers to water damage which does not pose a health threat. The water comes from sanitary sources, such as faucets.

Category II Water Damage Cleanup: This category refers to damage from “grey water,” or water which could pose a health risk if ingested. Some examples of Category II water damage are washing machine floods, toilet overflows with urine, and sink drain leaks.

Category III Water Damage Cleanup: This is considered the worst category of water damage. It involves damage from “black water” which poses a health risk, even if not ingested. Examples would be a toilet overflow with feces, sewer backups, river flooding, and standing water which has begun to fester bacteria and/or mold.

Water Damage Classes

In addition to categories based on health risk, water damage is also assessed by evaporation rate.

Class 1: This refers to situations where little water has saturated surfaces. For example, a room with no carpets and no water damage up its walls would be considered Class 1.

Class 2: This refers to situations in which carpet or padding is wet in one entire room and water has absorbed up walls less than 2 feet.

Class 3: This refers to situations in which flooring, sub flooring, walls, and other structures are saturated with water. Class 3 water damage is often caused by fire sprinklers, leaky roofs, or ceiling pipes leaking.

Class 4: This is the worst class of water damage and involves water saturated into materials which cannot be dried or accessed with air movers, such as saturated hardwood floors, sheet-rock, or crawlspaces. These situations will require special methods of cleanup and monitoring to ensure mold and bacteria don’t grow.
