How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Lake Lure
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.
-
Pump out the laundry water
Water is lifted from low spots first, then from the edges of the room. Removing it from the lowest point stops it from seeping further.
-
Map where the water went
Under an upstairs laundry, the technician checks the ceiling below. Water that dripped through the joists often leaves a larger wet patch than the stain.
-
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.
-
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.
