How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Northome

Anything that stays wet past the first two days turns into a bigger job. Pad and drywall that might have dried in place can become tear-out.

1. Pump out the standing water

   The operator works from the lowest spot outward, so water does not run back across cleared floor. Furniture goes up on blocks to keep the legs out of the puddles.

2. Map the moisture

   The technician tests cabinet bases, door casings and the baseboard run. Water travels along wall bases, so readings continue past the visible stain.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Soap film is rinsed from floors and wall bases. Left behind, it stays tacky and holds both dirt and moisture.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers go onto the wet surfaces and LGR dehumidifiers pull water from the air. The crew sizes both to the room's drying class.
