In the event of resistance during a restoration in Category 3 water loss, what action should restorers take?

Continue working
Consult a supervisor
Stop work immediately
Notify clients

The correct answer is: Stop work immediately

In situations involving Category 3 water loss, which is classified as highly contaminated and poses significant health risks, it is crucial to prioritize safety and mitigate any potential hazards. If resistance is encountered during the restoration process, stopping work immediately is the appropriate action. This allows the restoration team to assess the situation carefully to understand the cause of the resistance and determine the appropriate next steps, without putting team members or clients at risk. Continuing to work under such circumstances could lead to further contamination or exacerbate the issue, while consulting a supervisor or notifying clients is important but should come after ensuring that the immediate work scenario is safe. The focus should always be on ensuring a safe working environment before proceeding with any communication or further actions.
