TYPES OF WATER DAMAGE INSURANCE CLAIMS
Three main types of Water Damage Claims:
1. The first type of water damage insurance claim is due to water which escapes from a water supply line; this is called category one or fresh water damage. Category one does not carry bacteria or pose an immediate health threat.
2. Category two water damage claim refers to water that contains substantial chemical, biological or other contaminants, and that can cause discomfort or sickness from exposure or consumption. This is “Grey Water”. Examples are toilet bowls with urine, sump pump backups or overflows, seepage due to pressure failures, and water from dishwashers or washing machines.
3. The third type of water damage insurance claims is due to water which backs up through drains and sewers under the property, otherwise known as category three or black water. Category three contains bacteria and poses an immediate health hazard. Any wood or organic material it touches needs to be thoroughly cleaned or disposed of entirely.
