How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Corapeake

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

   Notes and photos from the mapping go into the job file. They show the adjuster the starting condition.

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

   Floor drying mats can pull water out of hard surfaces from below. The system runs until the readings flatten at the dry reference.
