How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Addy

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

   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

   Sheet vinyl sometimes gets lifted along one edge so the plywood below can breathe. The technician decides how much comes up from the readings.

4. Dry and confirm

   Dry means numbers, not feel. The final readings show every material at or near the reference, and the log goes into the claim file.
