How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Oelrichs

Closed spaces dry slowly. Cabinet bases, closets and wall cavities need air movement or a small opening to release water, which is why the crew opens only what the readings show is wet.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Carpet gets repeated passes with a weighted wand, because wash water clings to the backing. Hard floors get squeegeed toward the pump intake or the drain.

2. Map the moisture

   Readings are taken in a grid, not in one spot. A grid shows the edge of the wet zone and gives later visits the same places to compare.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Sheet vinyl over wet plywood gets lifted at an edge, so the wood beneath can release its water. Tile stays put unless the subfloor remains wet.

4. Dry and verify

   Floor drying mats can pull water up from hardwood or from a wet subfloor. The crew uses them where air movers alone are too slow.

• Write down who you spoke to at the insurer and when
• Report the loss to the insurer promptly
