How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Somes Bar

Carpet pad soaks up washer water like a sponge and holds it long after the carpet surface feels fine. Gray discharge water in that pad invites odors and growth. The crew often removes the pad and dries the floor beneath it.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Carpet gets a weighted extractor that squeezes water out of the pad. Any bulk water left behind goes into the air as vapor and slows drying.

2. Map where the water went

   Readings go beyond the visible stain, into the toe-kicks, the wall bases and the room next door. The map becomes the plan for equipment.

3. Open what stays wet

   Drywall that has wicked water upward may need a section cut out. Small holes near the floor let the cavity dry without opening the whole wall.

4. Dry and confirm

   Once the log shows dry, the equipment leaves. The repair contractor then works from a clear record of what was wet and what dried.
