Examples of water damage include delamination of composite building materials, microbial growth, oxidation of metal (rust), and rotting wood. Once water seeps into building materials like masonry, drywall, or wood, a natural chemical reaction begins, breaking down the integrity of the material. If this isn’t addressed, the stability of a structure can be compromised, making it difficult for human occupancy. Plus, greywater, or water that comprises substantial physical, biological, or chemical elements, may quickly become hazardous to human exposure as microbes, along with other contaminants, begin to grow to dangerous levels when the water has been standing for more than 2-3 days. Numerous highly contagious illnesses are linked to water damage, including respiratory infections, eye infections, salmonella, hepatitis A, skin infections, and Weil’s disease, along with kidney, blood, and liver issues.
