Water categories change the price
Category 1 is clean water from a supply line. Category 2 is grey water, like a washer or dishwasher overflow. Category 3 is sewage or flood water, which requires removing porous materials and costs the most. Water left for days can move up a category.
Ways to keep the bill down
- Call quickly. Every day wet adds tear-out and mold risk.
- Document everything for insurance before cleanup.
- Ask for daily moisture readings so drying ends on time.
