Contaminated Water Removal FAQs
What is the process for toxic spill water removal?
The area is made safe, the water is removed without spreading it and surfaces are cleaned with suitable products. Large spills may need a hazmat contractor.
How quickly should black water removal begin?
Right away. Black water spreads bacteria and odor into materials the longer it sits, increasing what must be removed.
How long does flooded basement cleanup take?
Cleanup and removal often take a day or two, and drying a basement after cleaning usually takes several more days.
Can gray water damage cleanup wait?
Not for long. Gray water left for a day or two can turn into black water and need more removal.
What is the difference between water extraction and restoration?
Extraction removes the water. Restoration includes cleaning, disinfection, drying and preparing the area for repairs.
