How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Elma

-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
