How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Flora

Carpet pad soaks up washer water like a sponge and holds it long after the carpet surface feels fine. Gray discharge water in that pad invites odors and growth. The crew often removes the pad and dries the floor beneath it.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Gray discharge water gets handled with gloves and boots. The crew removes it from the floor, then treats the surface with an antimicrobial.

2. Map where the water went

   A moisture meter and a thermal camera show the wet zone. The technician marks the edge of the wet area on the floor and the walls.

3. 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.

4. Dry and confirm

   Floor drying mats can pull water out of hard surfaces from below. The system runs until the readings flatten at the dry reference.
