If water damage is left untreated it will lead to the reproduction of mould and bacteria spores, creating another aspect of work to remove mould on top of the original water damage. The longer water is left the more extensive the damage can become. Removing the water is the priority, then we will work quickly to dry out water. After which we then work to remove bacteria, mould, and water stains.

Water damage can involve 3 different types of water. It’s useful to be able to identify and understand these categories as it will help both you and us know what precautions to take on-site. You should also be aware that without being treated, water will over time become more contaminated, changing category as it slowly turns into what’s classed as ‘black water’

CLEAN WATER

In simple terms clean water is that which is used for drinking, washing, toilet flushing, cooking, and farm irrigation – in other words it’s come from a potable supply line. If the water has come into contact or passed through other areas it may have mixed with soils or contaminants from floor coverings, sub-flooring, walls, decking, and other building materials, making it non potable. ‘Clean water’ when left alone will over time become contaminated with bacteria and turn into ‘grey’ or ‘black’ water. Sources of clean water include (but not limited) the overflow of running taps, a bath, or a sink.

GREY WATER

Grey water is that which is polluted and contains contaminants which make it unsafe for consumption. It contains harmful micro-organisms and nutrients which cause grey water to quickly turn black if it’s not attended to. This category of water is dangerous and is best left to a professional to clean up. Examples of grey water include (but not limited to): Overflow from a toilet containing some urine but no faeces. Water from household appliances such as a dishwasher or washing machine. A punctured waterbed or broken aquarium which contains chemically treated water. Water that is flowing from a hole in the roof and which has passed through ceiling insulation.

BLACK WATER

This type of water is harmful to living things and could cause serious illness or death if consumed. Despite its name, the water doesn’t have to look black – it can be clear and may or may not smell. Substances the water may contain include pesticides, faeces, urine, pathogenic waste, bacteria, land other dangerous chemicals or micro-organisms. You should always call in a professional to deal with this type of water damage. Sources of black water include (but not limited to): Sewer water or back-up from a sewer. Rising water from streams, dams or rivers. Toilet water back- flow from beyond the toilet trap. Ground or surface water, sea water.

Traditional cleaning has always been based on seeing a visibly clean environment. Infection Control cleaning is a new method to remove, kill and prevent the things we can’t see. Millions of bacteria and viruses live among us in our day to day lives. They go unseen and unnoticed until they enter our bodies and make us unwell. By this stage, it is too late. Other infections such as Norovirus affect thousands of people each year, closing restaurants, businesses, schools, and hotels.

Using School Friendly’s fogging system, causes minimum downtime and disruption. It can be used to treat small, large, and hard to reach areas in a short period of time. We use fogging through the application of Biomist to kill up to 99.999% of harmful pathogens such as Norovirus, Swine Flu, E. coli, Salmonella, Legionella and many more. This provides all our clients with the peace of mind they deserve.

HOW IT WORKS

After a thorough clean, our fogging operatives fill each room with a fine mist of 10-micron particles. As the particles settle onto all the surfaces, our powerful sterilizing agent kicks into action killing Bacteria, Spores and Viruses fast. Our fogging machines generate extremely small droplets of specialist disinfectant which settle underneath, on top of and on the sides of objects, soft furnishings, furniture, and hard to reach areas. This efficient process significantly reduces pathogens when compared to manual surface cleaning resulting in a cleaner and safer environment.
