Restoration of Tacoma Inc was contacted by a homeowner in Tacoma, WA, facing a serious water damage emergency due to a Category 3 mainline backup. The affected areas included the living room, kitchen, dining room, and laundry area. The customer expressed dissatisfaction with the previous mitigation vendor’s handling of the situation and sought a reliable, experienced restoration team to take over and restore their property promptly.
Upon arrival, our team conducted a comprehensive assessment of the property. Category 3 water, often referred to as “black water,” contains harmful contaminants and requires immediate, specialized intervention to ensure both safety and property protection. Our experts determined that significant mitigation work was needed to address the extensive damage across multiple areas of the home.
The first step in our restoration process was to implement advanced mitigation techniques. We removed standing water using industrial-grade extraction equipment to prevent further damage and contamination. Given the severity of the Category 3 water, all porous materials, including carpets and portions of drywall, had to be safely removed and disposed of according to industry protocols. Our team also set up high-efficiency air movers and dehumidifiers to expedite the drying process and control humidity levels, minimizing the risk of mold growth.
With mitigation completed, Restoration of Tacoma Inc turned its attention to the next phase—comprehensive repairs. This phase involves the restoration of all affected areas to their pre-loss condition. Our skilled technicians are scheduled to repair structural damage, replace flooring, and reinstall drywall. The kitchen, a crucial space in any home, will undergo specialized repair efforts to ensure the cabinetry, countertops, and flooring are fully restored and safe for use.
One of the challenges our team successfully overcame during the mitigation process was the safe handling of contaminated materials without spreading harmful bacteria to unaffected areas. By adhering to stringent containment protocols, including the use of negative air pressure and HEPA filtration, we ensured a safe and healthy environment throughout the restoration process.
Our expertise and attention to detail have reassured the homeowner that their property is in capable hands. As repairs progress, we are committed to maintaining open communication and minimizing any disruption to the customer’s daily life.
