How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Maxbass

Cabinet toe-kicks and the backs of base cabinets dry slowly. Moisture lingers there and nobody looks. The technician checks those spots with a meter before calling the room dry.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   The extraction crew picks a pump or a wand to fit the depth of the water. Pulling out the standing water first leaves less to evaporate into the air.

2. Map where the water went

   Under an upstairs laundry, the technician checks the ceiling below. Water that dripped through the joists often leaves a larger wet patch than the stain.

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

   Stubborn readings call for a second look. The crew checks for water trapped in a cavity, a closed cabinet or a layer that never got opened.
