When Your Sink or Tub Overflows?

If the bathroom in your house floods, it's generally caused by clogs or burst pipes. Sometimes sinks tend to have issues, especially when they are old.

When they overflow, it's generally due to clogs in the drain lines. Sink overflows mean water on the floor and that's how damage starts. Don't wait. Call Restoration 1 Durham when you see any sign of leaks in Durham.

Like all water damage cleanups, standing water will contain bacteria and pathogenic activity will ensue.

All bacteria lives and thrives on porous surfaces such as wood and other popular flooring materials. Subfloors, drywall, and particle board all fall into this category so beware of small or large leaks and never let water stand alone for long periods of time.

Mold will grow where there is moisture so be vigilant and get your home or office checked out soon for any sign of leaks or even potential leaks. Call Restoration 1 today because in less than 48 hours, mold and bacteria can bloom and grow into a dangerous condition.

Toilet Water Overflow Cleanup Service

Find that Shut-Off -Valve down behind your toilet tank. When your toilet overflows, get the water shut off quickly. You should be familiar with all the toilets in your home or office and locate these valves just in case. 

If any of your toilets do not have a shut-off-valve behind them, you may want to get one installed. When it comes to overflowing toilets, they are a lifesaver.  If you do not have a valve behind the toilet, you must get to the main shut-off-valve out at the street and get the water stopped immediately.

When you know you have a water emergency and the water has been successfully shut off, call Restoration 1 and get the professionals on the job at your house post haste.

Our fully qualified & licensed professionals are certified to handle any water, flood, or leak situations. The right tools, the ability and skills and the experience means help is always just a phone call away.  In Durham, our friendly service techs work around the clock to keep you stress free!

Category 2: “Gray Water”

Category 2, called Gray Water, contains lots of contamination that will certainly bring you a great deal of discomfort and the potential for illness if it gets down into your lungs. Category 2 causes are, as an example, standing water from a leaky washing machine, toilet overflows, bathtub or sink overflows, or an overflowing dishwasher.

Gray water contains viruses and bacteria and will quickly degrade into category 3 or “black water” if left untreated! Don't let this happen!

Our Certified professionals have personal protective equipment to comply with OSHA, EPA and IICRC guidelines and when they arrive, will treat a cleanup such as this as a "Category 3," to completely remove any and all pathogens in the area.

Category 3: “Black Water”

Category 3 is called Black water & is the most dangerous water because it is full of biological material like feces, grease, or hazardous chemicals and will cause severe illness or even death when ingested into your lungs.

Avoid all contact with this type of spilled water and let a fully certified and trained technician wearing an appropriate PPE get it handled for you.

Both Gray and black water like sewage backups, unknown leaks, toilet or sink backups, must be considered an emergency and dealt with by your friends at Restoration 1.
