How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Seekonk

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

   Carpet gets a weighted extractor that squeezes water out of the pad. Any bulk water left behind goes into the air as vapor and slows drying.

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

   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

   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.
