Water damage
Water damage is inevitable in both cases, whether it's flood waters or a burst pipe in the basement. Therefore, the homeowner will need a combination of water mitigation and removal services.
Both services work hand in hand and follow each other in the process of damage control. But the difference lies in the timing and level of efforts to contain and restore the damage.

Its highly recommended that homeowners contact a professional team like CLG Mold Xperts as they are well versed in performing both the services - water mitigation and water damage restoration.
Water Mitigation services
Water mitigation is primarily the containment process whereby the contractors try to prevent further water damage by checking the source and ensuring its plugged off. Another important thing they determine is the structure's safety before allowing others to enter the premises.
Water mitigation service providers are the first on-the-scene responders in case of water damage. They must remove excess water and stop more from flowing into the property. All the removable items of the house, like furniture, furnishings, clothing, and equipment, are also taken out to dry or discarded, depending on their condition and the kind of water damage.
These services professionals use diagnostic equipment like moisture meters and infrared gadgets to measure the level of dampness and accordingly deploy water extraction machinery like dehumidifiers, air scrubbers, and air movers to dry out the water logging in the property.
This team removes all damaged items like drywall, flooring, and others to prevent rot and mold from setting in. Not to mention structural integrity can be compromised by dampness throughout the building.
Water mitigation measures are short-term in that makeshift arrangements are made to stabilize the property until the restorers can set out to work on the place. These could include boarding up broken windows to prevent animals from breaking in, clearing out debris, and disinfecting the house to avoid any waterborne disease.
Water damage restoration
Water damage restoration is the rebuilding and refurbishing of the damaged property through maintenance, repair, and replacement of items. This work begins after the water mitigation services have extracted the water and plugged the source to prevent any further leakage.
Water damage restoration professionals begin reconstructing the property by removing all the damaged items and replacing them with new ones. Structural issues are detected, and reinforcement is done to prevent building collapse. Moisture levels are checked in the entire house, and further leaks are prevented by early detection. This is done to avoid mold growth which is quite hazardous to human health.
Depending on the extent of water damage and the time the property was submerged in water, the expenditure and schedule of the restoration will be calculated.
Simply put, water mitigation services prevent further damage, while water restoration services are for rebuilding and recovering from all the water damage.
