Common Sources of Grey Water Damage

Grey water may enter a property through several plumbing fixtures, appliances, and drainage systems. Identifying the source helps determine the extent of contamination and the cleanup approach required. Common sources include:

Washing Machine Discharge

Drain line problems or appliance leaks may release used laundry water into surrounding areas

Dishwasher Leaks

Failed hoses, connections, or drainage problems may allow contaminated water to escape onto floors and cabinets

Toilet Overflows

Toilets that overflow without solid waste may release grey water into bathrooms and nearby areas

Bathtub and Shower Drains

Drain blockages or plumbing failures may cause used bathing water to back up into the property

Sump Pump Discharge Issues

Problems with drainage or discharge systems may cause contaminated water to enter lower areas

Plumbing Drain Backups

Backed-up drains may release wastewater containing contaminants into floors and other affected spaces

More Water Damage Categories

Grey water is one of three water damage categories, which is Category 2. Category 1 and Category 3 represent different contamination levels of water damage. M&J Restoration provides cleanup and restoration services for properties affected by all three categories, using a proven process based on the source and condition of the water. The water damage categories are:

Step 1

Comes from sanitary sources such as broken supply lines, overflowing sinks, bathtubs, or appliances containing clean water. Although it has a lower contamination level, prompt removal helps limit damage and the potential for contamination to increase.

Step 2

Contains significant contamination and may include sewage, bacteria, chemicals, or other harmful substances. Common sources include sewer backups, floodwater, and septic overflows. This category requires specialized removal, cleaning, disinfection, drying, and restoration.
