How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Long Island City
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.

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.

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.

Long winters push laundry into basements, garages and mudrooms. Cold air holds little moisture, so crews add heat and run dehumidifiers longer. A hose in an unheated space can also freeze and crack. A leak in an upper unit can soak ceilings and walls in the apartment below. The crew photographs both and keeps separate records for each household.

- Photograph the hose, the machine and the wet floor before cleanup
