How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Marco Island

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

   Water is lifted from low spots first, then from the edges of the room. Removing it from the lowest point stops it from seeping further.

2. Map where the water went

   Notes and photos from the mapping go into the job file. They show the adjuster the starting condition.

3. Open what stays wet

   Drywall that has wicked water upward may need a section cut out. Small holes near the floor let the cavity dry without opening the whole 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.
