Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Questions in Clay
Is the drying equipment loud in a Clay home?
Air movers and dehumidifiers make steady noise while they run. The crew places them to dry the structure fastest, and they usually run for several days.
Should a Clay homeowner run fans on a wet laundry floor?
A box fan can move air but cannot pull moisture out of a wet subfloor. The crew uses air movers and dehumidifiers matched to the room.
Is it worth calling for a small washer leak in Clay?
A small puddle can hide a wet subfloor. A quick moisture check tells whether the water went deeper, before mold and swelling set in.
Can a leaking washer damage electrical wiring in Clay homes?
Yes, when water reaches outlets, cords or a panel, or runs down into a ceiling fixture. Keep the circuit off from a dry spot and have an electrician check it.
Does the Clay crew help with the insurance claim?
