How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Somers

Drywall pulls water upward from a wet floor like a wick. A stain that climbs a few inches means water is already inside the wall. Early extraction leaves less water to climb.

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

   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.

3. Open what stays wet

   A cabinet toe-kick gets removed so air can reach the wet area behind it. The crew puts it back after drying, or marks it for the repair contractor.

4. Dry and confirm

   Dry means numbers, not feel. The final readings show every material at or near the reference, and the log goes into the claim file.
