How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Frankford

A closed laundry closet traps humid air after a leak. Without airflow and dehumidifiers, the damp corners stay damp. The crew sets equipment so moist air actually leaves the space.

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 thermal camera flags cold, wet patches behind finished surfaces. The meter then confirms whether the cold area holds water.

3. Open what stays wet

   Only materials that cannot dry in place come out. The crew explains each opening and records it for the claim.

4. Dry and confirm

   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.
