How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Dupont

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet drywall, trim and wood. Pumping first and drying fast takes away the moisture it needs. Every hour of standing laundry water makes that job harder.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Gray discharge water gets handled with gloves and boots. The crew removes it from the floor, then treats the surface with an antimicrobial.

2. Map where the water went

   A moisture meter and a thermal camera show the wet zone. The technician marks the edge of the wet area on the floor and the walls.

3. Open what stays wet

   Swollen baseboards and soaked carpet pad come out first. Taking out trapped layers gives the air a way to reach the wet subfloor.

4. Dry and confirm

   Stubborn readings call for a second look. The crew checks for water trapped in a cavity, a closed cabinet or a layer that never got opened.
