How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Denver

Insulation in a wet wall holds water against the framing. Left alone, it stays wet well past the point where the surface looks normal. The crew opens the cavity when readings call for it.

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

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

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

   A technician returns each day to log temperature, humidity and material readings. Equipment stays until every wet material hits the dry target.
