Restoring your property after water damage is a frustrating experience. Fortunately, natural disasters don't occur every day, and chances are you'll never have to deal with water damage from rising water or flooding. However, simple plumbing leaks or overflows are far more common. While dealing with water damage may seem fairly simple (mop or wet vacuum; fans used to promote evaporation), unfortunately, this fails to consider the degree to which water can penetrate into structural cavities and assemblies, creating trapped pockets of saturation. Too late, property owners become aware of the on-going effect of this trapped water on structural and contents materials, which may include: discoloration, warping, splitting, delamination, and musty odor and mold growth.
ANCO follows the IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification) Standard for Professional Water Damage Restoration. The IICRC is a nonprofit certifying body for the inspection, cleaning and restoration industry. The IICRC Standard for Professional Water Damage is a procedural standard. It is based on reliable restoration principles, research and practical experience.
