Differences Between Water Mitigation and Water Damage Restoration
What Is Water Mitigation?
Water mitigation is the process of addressing, containing, and preventing further loss from water damage. The goal is to extract as much water as possible before attempting to restore the property to its pre-loss condition. It would be nearly impossible to restore a property without mitigating water damage first.
What Is Water Damage Restoration?
Water damage restoration is the process of restoring a property to its pre-loss condition, and typically follows water mitigation efforts. This may involve taking out drywall, carpeting, and other materials that were significantly damaged.
The Water Damage Mitigation Process
1. Stop the Water Flow
The first step to mitigating and cleaning water damage is to cut off the water source. To prevent additional damage in your home, the team at our water mitigation company will stop the water by shutting off a faucet, deactivating an appliance, or adjusting the main water valve on your property. Of course, if the water source is weather-related, it will likely have stopped by the time our team arrives. Regardless of the water source, our team will work diligently to stop the flow of water.
2. Determine Mitigation Requirements
Flood waters are classified into three categories by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC). By determining the category, our team can better prepare your property for mitigation and keep all occupants safe.
Category 1
Refers to “clean water” which is typically from a faucet, broken water line, or overflowed tub.
Category 2
Is classified as “gray water” which may contain harmful chemicals or debris.
Category 3
Is “black water” which contains raw sewage or river water.
3. Extract Water & Dry Out
With the water flow cut off and the mitigation requirements determined, our team will start the water mitigation process and will extract excess water in your home or business. We will help ensure any standing water on the property or within the property is gone before beginning the restoration process.

They were quick, professional and brought the equipment right away to start remediation. Responsive to our requests for copies of invoices, paperwork. Removed equipment when needed (after checking for humidity level). Thank you.Posted on Google Bruce TarroTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hi folks - well, I don't think anyone intentionally wants to have a water damage & restoration services company out to their house, however I will say I had a great experience working with Dry Force. Specifically our technician, Jeremy, explained everything did a great job keeping us informed as he worked to clean up the situation. I hope we don't have to use a service like this again, but very glad we had them!Posted on Google Sheena BanerjeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our water expansion tank burst and Dry force came in on a weekend and installed dehumidifiers and fans . They came in assessed the water damage and went back to the office and picked up whatever fans and equipment they had available and brought it in within a few hours. Any concerns we had were addressed. All questions were answered. We were very happy with the service we received. They also did the demolition . Care was taken during the process and the garbage was hauled out safely by them. When they came in to pick up their equipment , the area was cleaned up and back to its original state . I would Dry Force again and would definitely recommend them to friends and family .Posted on Google Victor MunizTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dry Force was amazing. Jake, in particular, walked me through the whole process. He even helped me start my insurance claim. He was very responsive and explained everything in great detail! I hate that i needed them, but so happy it was Dry Force that got the job done for me.Posted on Google Anastacia XTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mom’s place was damaged by negligent upstairs neighbors. Charlie T was not only helpful and knowledgeable but caring for what we went through. The work done was excellent and I would absolutely use Dry Force again because of the work and Charlie T who helped us probably the most. Thank You!!!!Posted on Google Cindy WoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dry Force was great when my 88-year old mother's water heater failed - they were very quick to respond, engaged her insurance company and Alberto helped us immensely with her insurance company who initially refused to help with any of the cost. He was as determined as we were on overcoming the insurance company's indifference. Thank you to the entire team, especially Alberto, for all of your help and support - it made a very stressful situation, much less stressful knowing we were working with a company that truly cared and worked with us as a team throughout the project.Posted on Google Cego PevoxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Dry Force crew was fast, efficient, and professional. After the water heater burst in the garage, they worked their magic, leaving everything completely dry as if there had been no water at all! They did a fantastic job!Posted on Google elo2teachTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dry Force did an excellent service and ensured that our needs were met. Jeremy facilitated a smooth process of making us safe by providing the tools that aerate our home, especially that we have a daughter with respiratory problem that exacerbated her condition due to the moisture on the wood. All the workers who came were respectful and explained how they are going to work on the areas affected by the leak, and protected the areas as they were in and out of the house as they haul the machines and materials. We highly recommend Dry Force for their prompt, and professionalism to carry out the job.
What Does a Water Mitigation Company Do?
