The first most important part of the water damage restoration process is to thoroughly inspect affected areas of the property. This ensures that the leak or flood conditions are resolved so that the process can begin. It also determines the class and category of the water damage. There are four classes of water damage that range from part of a room absorbing some moisture, to the damage being so severe that special equipment is necessary to dry building materials like hardwood or stone. The category of the water damage relates to the water conditions. If the water is from a clean source, such as rain water, it is usually sanitary. If a sewage line bursts, however, that is considered category three and needs to be resolved immediately before people get sick.
