Understanding Water Damage and Its Mitigation
Water Damage Restoration encompasses the process of addressing and restoring properties impacted by water damage. It involves various techniques and strategies to mitigate damage to structures, personal belongings, and the overall health of affected areas.
The Difference Between Restoration and Mitigation
- Mitigation: Refers to immediate actions taken to prevent further damage and stabilize the affected area. This includes identifying and stopping the source of water, removing standing water, and implementing measures to prevent mold growth.
- Restoration: Encompasses comprehensive efforts to restore affected areas to pre-loss condition. It includes cleaning, drying, repairing or replacing damaged materials, and implementing measures to prevent future water damage.
