How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Mechanicsville

Wet cardboard boxes of stored items stay damp for days. Move them onto a dry surface, or leave them for the crew if the floor is still wet.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Recovered wash water goes into the machine's tank and out to a proper disposal point. It is never sent toward another room or a storm drain.

2. Map the moisture

   A ceiling below the laundry area gets its own readings. Wet insulation and drywall there often decide whether the dry-out is a one-floor or a two-floor job.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Cabinet kick plates are pulled so the cavity behind them can breathe. Particleboard cabinets that stayed wet may be removed and listed in the scope.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment placement changes as the room dries. The technician moves air movers away from areas that read dry and toward areas that lag.
