How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Burden

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

   The extraction crew picks a pump or a wand to fit the depth of the water. Pulling out the standing water first leaves less to evaporate into the air.

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

   Wet insulation holds water against framing. Pulling it out lets the studs dry and keeps moisture from sitting in the wall.

4. Dry and confirm

   Air movers push dry air across the wet surfaces while LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the room. The crew changes the setup as the readings change.
