Because it is cleaner than other types of water, the cleanup costs for this are usually the lowest. Water that comes accidentally out of home appliances like fridges and water heaters and others is called gray water by professionals. Now, it’s a bit dirtier and that means that it costs more to clean up this type. Finally there is the dreaded black water. Black water has been tainted in some way, such as from a sewer pipe. Because of the amount of filth in black water, the cleanup is the most costly and challenging.
