SERVPRO of Atchafalaya is a certified IICRC,

We only follow the standards set by the IICRC.

this can help influence a client who is unsure about using their insurance policy after a particular loss.

by following IICRC standards we ensure that all work performed follows these guidelines, as most insurance companies only work with providers who follow these guidelines and are a certified firm. 

The IICRC has 3 categories of water in which most decisions are made in each loss.

category 1-

Clean water source from a clean water supply line, for example an overflown sink or a burst water supply line from a refrigerator.

Category 2-

Water that came from a clean water source but has traveled through building materials and has become contaminated.

Category 3- 

Water that does not come from a clean water source for example a flood or a toilet back up, typically this means all materials that were affected by this water needs to be removed with the exception of core building materials like framing, after removing all contaminated materials, cleaning and disinfecting needs to occur before the drying equipment is placed.
