How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Hondo

Closed spaces dry slowly. Cabinet bases, closets and wall cavities need air movement or a small opening to release water, which is why the crew opens only what the readings show is wet.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Carpet gets repeated passes with a weighted wand, because wash water clings to the backing. Hard floors get squeegeed toward the pump intake or the drain.

2. Map the moisture

   The technician runs a pinless meter across the floor, the lower wall and any ceiling below. Each reading goes onto a sketch of the room.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Sewage-tainted water from a drain backup is Category 3. The crew contains the area, wears protective gear and removes porous materials the water touched.

4. Dry and verify

   A closed cabinet base or wall cavity gets a small opening or a vent so air can reach the trapped water.
