How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Burlingame

A sealed vinyl floor keeps water trapped against the plywood below. That layer can stay wet for days with no sign above. Meters find it, and a drying system pulls it out.

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

   A thermal camera flags cold, wet patches behind finished surfaces. The meter then confirms whether the cold area holds water.

3. Open what stays wet

   Sheet vinyl sometimes gets lifted along one edge so the plywood below can breathe. The technician decides how much comes up from the readings.

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.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Water that backs up through a drain or standpipe is treated differently from a hose burst. Many policies cover it only with an added endorsement. The policy holder can ask the insurer which one applies to the loss.

• Photograph the hose, the machine and the wet floor before cleanup
• Report the loss to the insurer soon after discovery
• Ask the insurer whether drain backup needs an endorsement

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
